Fraud Risk Assessment Guidance and Tools

Fraud Risk Assessment Leading Practice Guide

The fraud risk assessment guide provides key principles and methods taken from leading practices across public and private sectors. Australian Government entities can apply or adapt these methods to suit their individual circumstances. The guide will also help fraud specialists, government officials (including policy designers) and senior leaders better understand the fraud risk assessment process and how these assessments can benefit their entity.

The Fraud Risk Assessment Template

The Fraud Risk Assessment Template can help you record, assess and evaluate detailed/operational-level fraud risks in a consistent way.

The Strategic Fraud Risk Profiling Tool

The Strategic Fraud Risk Profiling Tool is designed to help Australian Government officials identify high risk areas while prioritising efforts in their entities. It is good practice to first develop a strategic fraud risk profile for your organisation before embarking on a detailed fraud risk assessment.

The Initial Fraud Impact Assessment Tool

The Initial Fraud Impact Assessment (IFIA) tool is used to make an early high-level assessment of the inherent risks and potential impacts of a new policy, program and initiative. It can help Australian Government officials find the potential for fraud up-front, and design policies, programs and initiatives in a way that reduces fraud before it causes harm.
