Review by Julie G for Fraud Risk Assessment: Building a Fraud Audit Program
Rating:
My manager and I both felt this was a poorly written book. I have no doubt that the author is a competent fraud investigator, but his writing left much to be desired. There was no organizational flow to the book, no rhyme or reason to how he bulleted and arranged his points, to help me stay on track with him. It felt like he was just babbling information onto the pages. A lot of it is good information, but it was extremely difficult to go away with a clear understanding of how to structure my own fraud audit program. It didn’t help that almost every page had a grammatical error in it, which was not only distracting but also contributed to it feeling thrown together and not well-thought out. I’m amazed that the editors published it in this state.
There is some useful content, particularly in the chapters that discuss examples of specific fraud schemes, and the data mining chapter. I will use those areas as a reference on audits. But the remaining chapters, which I had hoped would lay out good, step-by-step strategies for building a fraud program, left much to be desired. The content may all be there, but I think it should be the writer’s responsibility, not mine, to organize it clearly and make something useful out of it.

I have to agree that Vona’s writing can be improved. His thoughts are disjointed and one has serious difficulty in garnering a comprehensive picture of his perspective on Fraud Risk. He describes three ways of doing a Fraud Risk that should more appropriately be described as three stages of a developing fraud risk strategy. Fraud Risk, like Controlled Self Assessment, is the latest craze for consultants and some external auditors. They are generally full of catch phrases and jargon but appear to possess little real knowledge of the activity as a logical concept.
The CFE who praised this book made me wince, but then, he was vague on his basis for doing so.
Vona does not appear to see business risk analysis as a precursor to fraud risk, which I would argue is axiomatic. He should, however, be congratulated for making a valiant effort to address this controversial topic.

The book creates the link between the auditors anf fraud examiners! It is a very important brick in the antifraud wall!
