Today marks the launch of the 4th annual Charity Fraud Report in partnership with BDO and Fraud Advisory Panel. The landscape for charities is increasingly challenging, with fraud risks on the rise. This year, 42% of charities have reported incidents of fraud or attempted fraud and 60% of respondents agree that the ongoing cost-of-living crisis has heightened fraud risk. The most prevalent types include misappropriation of cash or assets, authorised push payment fraud, and expenses and subsistence fraud.
