The Government in recent years has increased pressure on its agencies to tackle high level fraud and financial crime, and to rigorously investigate and enforce misconduct and wrongdoing at a corporate level.
This shift in attitude has seen an increasing number of companies fall under the spotlight for issues relating to non-compliance, and an increase in individuals facing prosecution for allegations of serious fraud, and a range of other criminal offences.
