About the event

OUTSMART fraud before it strikes!
Fraud does not knock. It sneaks in — costing Philippine companies millions in undetected losses. Catch the fraudsters cooking the books!

Join this whole day, SEC-accredited training led by former SGV partner Leo Matignas, Jr., author of the pioneering book "Piercing the Numbers: Fraud and Forensics".

Gain proven techniques, practical lessons and actionable insights on how to detect, prevent and respond to financial fraud.

Designed for business owners, board directors, investors, lenders, finance leaders, compliance professionals, risk management specialists, government officials and employees, this learning session provides the strategic edge to protect assets, reinforce governance and secure long-term profitability.

This training is aligned with regulatory mandates and governance directives issued by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE), Insurance Commission (IC), Commission on Audit (COA), Department of Budget and Management (DBM), Governance Commission for GOCCs (GCG) and Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) — which emphasizes the need for robust internal controls, fraud detection and training.
