Louise Hodges and Richard Fox quoted in Corporate Fraud Supplement in The Times

Louise Hodges and Richard Fox were quoted in a special Corporate Fraud supplement in The Times this week.

"Louise Hodges, business and criminal defence partner at law firm Kingsley Napley says that for businesses, it is often a strategic decision whether or when to report fraud. Employment partner Richard Fox explains that businesses in regulated industries, such as banking and law, have a duty to report fraud to their regulatory bodies, but are not obliged to involve the police. Hodges adds that this may well depend on whether the company is planning to pursue a civil action to recover its losses as this can be delayed by protracted police and other investigations.”
