Multi-national fraud risk review and investigation
KordaMentha was engaged to assist a large multi-national corporation in the construction industry to identify and mitigate the risk of fraud across the business.
-
Anticorruption investigation
We were engaged to conduct a Government-mandated investigation into allegations of corrupt payments channelled through a Singapore bank. We produced a report on the flow of funds and certain questionable practices. We identified the responsible persons, resulting in the bank’s funds being returned in numerous cases.
-
Investigating sexual harassment
We were engaged to investigate alleged sexual harassment by a male contractor (the Respondent), reportedly including unsolicited personal calls from the Respondent to a female contractor (the Impacted Person), including sexually explicit and aggressive language and threats of sexual violence.
It was a stressful situation and I was reassured by KordaMentha’s ‘sense of urgency’ throughout the engagement.
