Fraud and Irregularities in EU-funded projects

Fraud, corruption, conflict of interest, double-funding – all very familiar terms that commonly conjure up concern amongst practitioners in the management, control and audit of public funds. This course sheds light on the most common errors in the ESIF, EMFAF, EAFRD, AMIF, ISF, BMVI and NRRPs, by sharing the latest knowledge and experiences on errors and irregularities, whilst encouraging the application of principles and techniques for their solution. It addresses mitigation measures from all three angles – prevention, detection and correction – in the context of the concurrent closure of 2014-20 Programmes, roll-out of the new Programmes for 2021-27 and execution of the Recovery and Resilience Plans.
