Fraud Readiness

Choose the depth of fraud-readiness insight your organisation needs.

Essential and Comprehensive begin with the Fraud Readiness Assessment and differ in how far MK takes the result — from a prioritised diagnosis of where you stand, to a designed control environment with an implementation programme. Advisory can be discussed with MK directly, whether or not you have assessed yet.

All amounts are in South African Rand. Essential and Comprehensive are confirmed after you have completed the assessment and seen your Snapshot; nothing is charged before then. If you choose Advisory after completing an assessment, MK carries your assessment context into the enquiry automatically.

How the three options differ

Essential establishes the position. Comprehensive adds the design work needed to act on it. Advisory is MK doing the work with you. Each step is a change in depth, not a change in how carefully the work is done.

What every option has in common

The assessment is completed by your organisation and the responses are self-reported. MK Fraud Insights analyses what you tell us; for Essential and Comprehensive we do not inspect evidence, test whether controls operate in practice, or express an opinion on them. Where that depth is required, it is Advisory work and is scoped and contracted separately.

Responsibility for decisions taken on the basis of any output remains with your management.
