Investigation Techniques, Methods, Types, and Increasing Impact of Forensic Accounting in Digital Period

Öz

Forensic accountants are responsible for fighting financial malpractices and fraud in organizations and businesses. They are also responsible for ensuring that courts have sufficient and relevant information that can be used as evidence of criminal activity regarding finances (Akinbowale, et al., 2020, p. 1256). Financial accounting applications are made successful through engagement in duties such as financial data analysis, preparation of reports, and testing the results before courts. Investigation involves examination of record books to determine if a financial criminal activity has occurred. Through these investigations, forensic accountants find and discover fraud and malpractices thus bringing the culprits to books. The reports filed act as evidence in courts.
