Fraud Investigation & Dispute Services (FIDS)
Amidst the current economic downturn and turmoil, the ever-present threat of fraud grows stronger. High profile frauds have surfaced in a number of major markets, as the rapidity of the downturn has denied fraudsters the liquidity and markets necessary to cover their tracks.
