Everatt & Co joins fraud forums

October 2008

Reflecting the firm’s growing role in helping clients to discourage and detect fraud, Everatt & Company has recently joined both the Insurance Fraud Investigation Group and the Midlands Fraud Forum.

On 1st October 2008 the Insurance Fraud Investigation Group (IFIG) became one of the first organisations in the UK to be acknowledged by the Government as a ‘Specified Anti-Fraud Organisation’ under the Serious Crime Act 2007. Only six anti-fraud organisations have been awarded this status, which will allow public bodies to share intelligence with IFIG to prevent or detect fraud in general and insurance fraud in particular.

The Midlands Fraud Forum, meanwhile, is developing an excellent ‘grass roots’ network and will, we believe, be of great help in our focus on promoting best practice in countering fraud.
