As the world demand for metals and minerals, timber and petroleum grows, natural resources companies are constantly looking for new properties in which to explore and develop. The combination of the aggressive search for raw materials, the need for extensive local managerial autonomy, and limited supply options can, if left unmonitored, easily enable costly frauds to occur. According to the survey for this edition of the Global Fraud Report, nearly four in ten natural resource companies suffered from management conflict of interest in the last three years.
