Employee theft and the economy

Posted by Tracy Coenen on January 22, 2009 · 1 Comment 

It’s popular to say that because of the economy, employee theft will go up. While that may happen, there’s actually no way of proving it one way or another. ABC News quoted me in this story: Stealing a Slice of the Company Pie.

I elaborate on these comments in an article I wrote for the Wisconsin Law Journal:  Fraud and the Economy: Correlation or Coincidence?

What is your opinion?

    Yes, I agree with you Tracy. I feel that we hear about fraud more when our economy is going under, and it is hard to measure it. Fraud happens all the time. Because of how the economy is right now, I do think that there is more fraud occurring due to financial struggles.
