Forensic Accounting Department Webinar: Robust Anti-Corruption Strategies for Developing Nations

On June 30, 2023, the Forensic Accounting Department hosted a highly anticipated webinar featuring Vincent Kanhukamwe, MBA, a specialist in Financial Forensics and Risk Management. This event was attended by 21 enthusiastic participants, reflecting the high level of interest in the topic.

Vincent, who holds an international reputation in the fields of finance and risk management, delivered highly relevant and in-depth material. The main topic addressed was "Robust Anti-Corruption Strategies for Developing Nations: Towards Accelerated Socio-Economic Growth in the Modern World." This webinar aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of how developing nations can implement effective anti-corruption strategies to promote sustainable economic growth.

In his presentation, Vincent highlighted data from the 2023 Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI), which revealed that corruption remains a significant challenge worldwide. More than two-thirds of countries scored below 50 out of 100, indicating serious corruption problems. The global average, which stands at just 43, shows that efforts to reduce corruption still need significant improvement. Over the past decade, most countries have shown little to no progress, with some even experiencing setbacks in their anti-corruption efforts.

This webinar was conducted free of charge, demonstrating the Forensic Accounting Department's commitment to ensuring that education and understanding of anti-corruption strategies are accessible to everyone. This is a crucial step in building a strong foundation for combating corruption, particularly in developing nations that often face significant challenges in this area.

Webinar participants gained valuable insights into how robust anti-corruption strategies can be applied within their own contexts. Additionally, they were encouraged to discuss and share experiences regarding the challenges faced and the solutions that can be implemented.

The Forensic Accounting Department is committed to continuing to host webinars like this, with the aim of providing ongoing understanding and education to the wider community. We believe that with strong collaboration and synergy, we can create a more transparent and corruption-free world.
