Abstract: The Role of Forensic Accountants in White-Collar Crime Investigations
This study examines the role of forensic accountants in white-collar crime investigations, aiming to understand their contribution to uncovering financial fraud, improving the prosecution of white-collar criminals, and aiding in asset recovery. A survey design was adopted, targeting 300 forensic accountants and law enforcement officials in Abuja, selected based on Taro Yamane's formula for sample size determination. The survey instrument's reliability coefficient score was 0.89. Findings suggest that forensic accountants play a crucial role in identifying complex financial fraud schemes, providing critical evidence that enhances prosecution rates, and facilitating asset recovery. The study recommends enhancing collaboration between forensic accountants and law enforcement agencies and investing in specialized training for forensic accountants to address the complexities of white-collar crimes.
