Taking Data Analytics to the Next LevelLEvEL: INTErmEDIaTE

Vincent Walden, CFE, CPA, CITPPartner, Ernst & Young, LLP

Given the current trends around big data, the convergence of both structured (financial) and unstructured (text, social me-dia, email, etc.) data has profoundly changed the way companies think about fraud and monitoring for fraud risks - especial-ly in the context of bribery and corruption. In fact, the ACFE Report to the Nations shows that 33% of the incidents reported globally were corruption related. The key is that new tools need to be implemented to address these risks. In this session you will learn leading ways companies are integrating advanced forensic data analytics to detect rogue employee activities.

8:30 – 9:50 a.m.

Opening General Session: Enhancing Your Professional SkepticismJames D. Ratley, CFEPresident and CEO, Association of Certified Fraud Examiners

Exercising professional skepticism is a necessary part of a fraud examiner’s job, but what kinds of inquiries should a questioning mind make to identify a fraud perpetrator’s trail? How does a mindset of professional skepticism translate into fraud-finding action? This session will teach you how to think like a fraudster to enhance their professional skepti-cism and improve your ability to uncover fraudulent activity. 10:05 – 11:25 a.m.

2A: Becoming an Expert as an Expert WitnessLEvEL: INTErmEDIaTE

Drew Dorweiler, CFE, FRICS, CBV, ASAManaging Partner, Dartmouth Partners Limited

Whether you are anticipating your first courtroom experi-ence or are highly familiar with the rigors of the witness stand, being an effective and successful expert is a critical skill for anti-fraud professionals. Drawing on the present-er’s extensive experience, this session will explore best practices including the retention process, evidence gath-ering, report writing, pre-trial assistance of counsel, and expert testimony during direct and cross-examination.

2B: Utilizing Hotline Benchmarking Data to Improve Ethics and Compliance Program EffectivenessLEvEL: INTErmEDIaTE

Nicholas CiancioSenior Vice President, Strategic Solutions, NAVEX Global

Benchmark data can help identify areas of concern in your ethics and compliance program, as well as provide a com-parison against others in similar industries or organizational size. This session will look at how your hotline data reflects activity within your organization, and how one leading or-ganization implemented these findings with great success.

11:40 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.

Working Lunch: Ethics and Compliance in a Globally Operating Engineering Company: A Management Responsibility of the Highest PriorityAndreas PohlmannChief Compliance Officer, SNC-Lavalin

With approximately 25 years of experience in compliance, governance, public and governmental affairs, Andreas Pohlmann has an extensive background in corporate ethics and governance issues on an international scale. This key-note address will draw on Pohlmann’s real-world experi-ence to provide insight into the global issue of compliance.

1:15 – 2:35 p.m.

4A: Learning from Phony Vendor Schemes: A Case Study AnalysisLEvEL: INTErmEDIaTE

Reid LesterLawyer, Partner, Laishley Reed LLP

Fraudsters employ some creative techniques to perpetrate phony invoice frauds. Regardless of the exact form of each scheme, there are similarities that can raise red flags for the conscientious investigator, and that can provide insight as to what internal controls can be put into place to detect or prevent most phony vendor schemes. Using case studies, this session will review the patterns of certain phony vendor schemes, identify similarities and determine what internal weaknesses have commonly been exploited by fraudsters.

4B: Tales from the Past: How Fraud Investigation Has Changed and Not ChangedLEvEL: INTErmEDIaTE

James Blatchford, CFE, CMA, FCMA, CFIPartner Advisory Services, MNP LLP

Take a look at how fraud investigations have changed, and not changed, from 1982 to 2012. This session will look at historical examples in “the good old days,” before shifting the focus to current examples of how major fraud investiga-tions now need to include a multitalented team of lawyers, accountants, IT professionals, data analytic professionals and others. A relatively current case will be included.

2:50 – 4:10 p.m.

5A: Promoting a Collaborative Environment Among Risk Management, Internal Audit and Compliance DepartmentsLEvEL: aDvaNCED

Andrew Simpson, CISACOO, CaseWare RCM Inc.

Long gone are the days when organizations could afford to treat each risk, fraud and compliance issue as an indi-vidual problem and allow business processes, employees and systems to operate in silos. In order for businesses to activate robust fraud detection, diverse teams of fraud in-vestigators, internal auditors, enterprise risk management specialists, business executives and compliance officers, must work in unison. This session will examine the Three Lines of Defense Model where each team or “line” plays a distinct role to achieve organizational objectives.

5B: The Confession Interview: Ethical, Legal and Psychological Implications for the Forensic AccountantLEvEL: aDvaNCED

Scott Porter, CA-IFA, CPASenior Investigator, Professional Conduct, Institute of Chartered Accountants of Ontario

Police investigators are renowned for their investigative interviewing skills, many of which are obtained through a standardized model of interview training. Learn these criti-cal interviewing skills and models while viewing compelling police interview footage as an actual case. Starting with a re-view of confession laws and the pitfalls that may arise if the forensic accountant does not have the requisite understand-ing of these laws, the session will discuss various interview models and their applicability to confession interviews.

8:30 – 9:50 a.m.

General Session: Making Money the Old-Fashioned Way: Fraud and Public CorruptionChris MathersCorporate Intelligence Expert, Founder of chrismathers inc

Does Canada deserve its reputation as being “corruption free?” What will be the impact of the SNC Lavalin charges and the Charbonneau Inquiry on our international reputation? Chris Mathers will discuss the current state of bribery and cor-ruption in Canada, including recent criminal cases that would seem to indicate that we may not be as clean as we think.

10:05 – 11:25 a.m.

7C: Investigating and Prosecuting Investment Frauds in Canada and Beyond: Real Case StudiesLEvEL: aDvaNCED

Norm DeBoer, CFEDetective, Waterloo Regional Police Service

How can individuals, businesses and governments protect themselves from investment frauds? What preventative measures are investment regulators taking? This session will cover the process of a criminal fraud prosecution and the best options for recovering lost money. It will also cov-er questions and answers concerning the epidemic prob-lem of losing trust in financial advisors.

7D: Leveraging Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) to Combat FraudLEvEL: aDvaNCED

Tyson Johnson, CFE, CPPHead - Business Development, BrightPlanet

Managing and identifying intellectual property infringe-ment can help leaders maintain a competitive advantage and avoid loss in market share. As fraud examiners and risk management practitioners seek to harness the overwhelm-ing body of information available through OSINT, this ses-sion will provide proactive new solutions to use in the field.

11:40 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.

Working Lunch with Ed RosenbergEd Rosenberg, CAVice President & Chief Security Officer, BMO Financial Group

9C: Ethical Risk ManagementLEvEL: INTErmEDIaTE

Messaoud Abda, CFE, CGA, CSI, FICBDirector, Economic Criminality Program, University of Montreal, Faculty of Continuing Studies

The intangible aspect of ethics and the reasonable doubt concept can be a sensitive issue in an anti-fraud strategy. The concept of the ethical accountability is a new liability and correcting the ethics impairment is as imperative as correcting the market value impairment. In this session, you will learn how to reduce your organization’s ethical risk through knowledge, vigilance, management and caution.

9D: Using Technology to Automate Fraud Detection Within Key Business Process AreasLEvEL: INTErmEDIaTE

John Verver, CA, CISA, CMCVice President, Product Strategy & Alliances, ACL Services Ltd.

Technology can play a critical role in identifying indicators of fraud in most business process areas. By implementing suites of analytic tests that regularly monitor transactions, management can respond quickly to red flags and reduce the risk of fraud escalation. Through a discussion of typical frauds, symptoms and tests, you will learn how organiza-tions have seen immediate results through the use of audit analytics technology in key business areas.

2:50 – 4:10 p.m.

10C: Fraud: Who Is Winning the Battle?LEvEL: INTErmEDIaTE

Philip Levi, CFE, FCPA, CPA, CFFPartner, Levi & Sinclair, LLP

Recently we have seen a dramatic increase in large fraud and an unprecedented increase in the less-publicized, but more costly, smaller frauds. As technology grows, a new breed of outlaw has appeared on the scene — the cyber-crook. This session will describe the new battle-ground, identify the new fraudsters, and explore the role fraud examiners can play in the battle against fraud.

10D: Dealing with an Investigation by an Outside AuthorityLEvEL: INTErmEDIaTE
