ABOUT THE RESEARCH
Between 2018 and 2019, SAS and 3Gem surveyed 2,025 global business leaders across 38 countries for their opinions and experiences of procurement fraud. SAS commissioned the research to understand the extent of the problem and assess how much organizations understand it and attempt to fight back. The goal was to analyze current anti-fraud strategies, while making the case for a more analytical, technology-enabled approach.
