You have probably heard the phrase, “Proper planning prevents poor performance.” That is how one of the session panelists introduced the 34th Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference session, “72 Hours to Get it Right, Sponsored by FORVIS,” which focused on the role of timeliness when it comes to fraud investigations.
