Forensic and Litigation Services
Safeguarding assets and managing fraud and compliance risk is becoming an increasingly difficult task for organizations. Increasing technology is offering new opportunities for wrongdoers whilst reforms are placing increasing levels of responsibility and accountability on Companies and their Senior Management.
Firms face new kinds of security-related threats in the areas of missapropriation of company assets and resources, fraud, conflicts of interest and unethical behaviour, electronic funds diversion, money laundering, information theft and cyber terrorism.
The perpetrators can be your own employees, suppliers, investors, customers or business partners. Entering foreign markets magnifies the threat because of differing business customs and regulatory practices. And at home, cybercrime affects both you and your customers.
KPMG's Forensic & Litigation Services practice can help you respond to these new threats and challenges.
Our in-depth experience ranges from conducting fraud investigations to implementing and monitoring ethics and integrity programs for organizations around the world.
We combine technical anticrime skills with the deep resources of a global network of member firms. And with our IT network and experience investigating complex cyber crimes internationally, we can confront wrongdoers with their most powerful weapons. KPMG's Forensic & Litigation professionals include investigative accountants, former law enforcement officers, audit and risk specialists, business valuers, computer analysts and dispute resolution experts.
Our comprehensive services can help you:
How we can help?

Forensic technology
We help clients to manage risks derived from network intrusions, internal fraud, theft of trade secrets as well as hostile workplace claims, loss of reputation and resource draining litigation.
