Economic crime occurs in all industries.
Nowadays, digital data and entire IT systems are increasingly forming the basis for solving crimes in companies.
Data from accounting, sales and logistics systems are often important sources of information. Frequently, emails also contain clues to clarify the facts of the case. The data is not only found on computers, but increasingly also on mobile devices such as smartphones.
IT specialists support you in identifying and securing all data sources relevant to the facts of the case and analyse the data obtained for anomalies. When collecting data, we make sure that all measures are carried out in accordance with data protection regulations. Especially in international projects, the local legal requirements and the different project requirements must be considered.
Legal specialists enable a review with the leading eDiscovery platforms and use artificial intelligence ("TAR" - Technology Assisted Review, "CAR" - Computer Assisted Review or even "Predictive Coding"), for example, to increase the quality and effectiveness of the analysis.
Our experts have many years of experience in the field of internal and regulatory investigations and will provide you with unbiased and independent support in dealing with suspected cases from within (white-collar offences, gross breaches of internal instructions, data protection incidents, etc.) or from outside (white-collar offences, money laundering, cyber attacks, etc.).
In order to support you even better in dealing with unstructured data, our experts at Grant Thornton now work with the software “RelativityOne” from Relativity GmbH, Frankfurt am Main “Relativity”. With this, we at Grant Thornton are expanding our global offering in the field of forensic services.
