Brian R. Jones CPA, LLC
Clarity for business owners
Most businesses do not have a fraud problem - they have a structure problem that creates risk.
-
Too much authority concentrated in one person
-
Limited oversight of cash and payments
-
Weak or inconsistent processes
Our Approach
Risk Identification
Where problems can occur
Where too much control exists in one role
Control Design
Practical and scalable:
Segregation of duties
Approval workflows
Disbursement controls
Reconciliation procedures
Monitoring
Review processes
Exception identification
Ongoing adjustments
Key Principle
Fraud is driven by opportunity.
Internal controls reduce opportunity.
Proactive vs Reactive
Reactive approach:
Forensic accounting
Investigations
Legal costs
Our approach:
Prevent issues before loss occurs
Improve visibility
Strengthen systems
Most financial losses in small businesses occur because basic controls are missing—not because schemes are complex.
Our role is to help you put practical controls in place that match your business.
