Thank you for your support and participation in the 25th Anniversary Conference and Annual Dinner 2024.
On 9 April 2024, Mr. Kris Lee and Mr. Anoop Gidwani, Directors of the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners Hong Kong Chapter attended a virtual interview by Professor Andreas Chai, Director of the Academy of Financial Crime Investigation and Compliance. In this interview, Anoop and Kris discussed about the history and development of ICAC, corruption investigations, financial crime, anti-money laundering and shared some interesting cases. Kris and Anoop also answered questions from the students online.
ACFE Hong Kong Chapter recently presented two half-day practical interview skills workshops. The workshops received some outstanding reviews from the participants from wide-ranging job responsibilities in corporate and government audit and compliance, education, computer forensics, investigations and accounting. 84% of those attending were satisfied or very satisfied and 83% would recommend the course to their peers. Our presenters, Ian Barlow and Kris Lee, received high marks for their presentation skills and management of the practical exercises. We thank all those who attended and took the time to give their considered reviews of the workshops. Our thanks also to Grant Thornton for the generous use of their excellent training rooms. We have heard the suggestions about repeating this course, expanding the content to include investigation strategies and of extending the event to a full day. Please look out for announcements by email and Facebook and on our website for all our 2024 events.
The Hong Kong Chapter ACFE congratulates Mr John D Gill on his appointment as President ACFE and Mr John Warren on his appointment as CEO ACFE, succeeding Mr Bruce Dorris. We wish Mr Gill and Mr Warren every success in these positions and offer our thanks and best wishes to Mr Dorris.
Today we have completed our annual signature event Fraud Investigation Training 2023 (part 1), organize in partnership with Centre for Criminology, HKU. We are glad to have distinguished speakers to share their knowledge and experience with over 100 attendees over the four Saturdays in June 2023. Thank you for support and see you in upcoming events.
Barry Tong, President of ACFE HK Chapter, was interviewed by Fraud Magazine in May/June 2023 issue.
" Barry Tong, CFE, wanted to be an accountant ever since he was in secondary school, but it wasn’t until he joined a Big Four firm’s insolvency and restructuring department that he became interested in fighting fraud. Now, Tong spearheads fraud investigations as Grant Thornton China’s national leader of Forensic and Investigation Services (FIS) based in Hong Kong. "
