Forensic Accounting

Forensic Accounting in Vancouver

Forensic accounting is a special field of practice that involves investigating potential white-collar crimes in the financial world. Our Certified forensic accountants in Vancouver assist with analyzing accounting and auditing procedures with other information to uncover possible cases of insurance fraud, embezzlement, banking crimes and other accounting discrepancies.

While examining financial records under scrutiny, forensic accountants use their vast knowledge of business information, financial reporting systems and data analysis techniques to anticipate the actions of criminals. The ability to identify both patterns and inconsistencies to reveal criminal activity concealed within financial statements, bank accounts and other records is a critical skill.
