Financial Shenanigans & Case Study

Financial shenanigans can range from creative interpretation of accounting rules to outright fraud. These change the company's credit risk, often making it look healthier than it is, and the issues can go undetected for many years. Financial shenanigans pose significant analytical challenges to credit professionals and have caused sizeable losses to the credit and investor community.

Join Antje Seiffert Murphy, CFA, as she addresses different types of financial shenanigans and ways to detect them. Antje will work through a hypothetical case study to demonstrate how financial shenanigans can significantly alter how financially healthy a company could appear.
