Understanding Human Behavior and Fraud

Human behavior plays a critical role in the occurrence of fraud, with most individuals capable of unethical actions under certain pressures. The podcast highlights that it's not just known fraudsters who commit unethical acts; even long-standing, trusted employees may succumb to fraud when faced with personal crises. An example is shared about a dedicated employee from a pharmaceutical company who committed fraud due to personal financial pressures, underscoring that ethical standards are subjective and can change based on one’s circumstances. This suggests that vulnerability to unethical behavior exists in many people, emphasizing the need for organizations to recognize and address these human risks.
