Our Role

The Fraud Advisory Panel aims to raise awareness of the immense social and economic damage caused by fraud and to help the private and public sectors, and the public at large, to fight back.

The Panel was established in 1998 through a public-spirited initiative by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW). Today, it is a registered charity (no: 1108863) and company limited by guarantee (no: 04327390) in England and Wales.

The Panel works to:

	Originate proposals to reform the law and public policy on fraud
	Develop proposals to enhance the investigation and prosecution of fraud
	Advise business as a whole on fraud prevention, detection and reporting
	Assist in improving fraud-related education and training in business and the professions, and amongst the general public
	Establish a more accurate picture of the extent, causes and nature of fraud

Members of the Fraud Advisory Panel include representatives from the law and accountancy professions, industry associations, financial institutions, government agencies, law enforcement, regulatory authorities and academia.

The Panel works to encourage a truly multi-disciplinary perspective on fraud. No other organisation has such a range and depth of knowledge, both of the problem and of the means to combat it.

The Panel is funded by subscription, donation and sponsorship.

The Fraud Advisory Panel's registered office is Chartered Accountants' Hall, PO Box 433, Moorgate Place, London, EC2P 2BJ. The Panel is registered for VAT (no: 835 9674 78).
