Contrast management fraud with employee fraud
Employee fraud is usually designed to directly convert cash or other assets to the employee's personal benefit.
Management fraud involves less of a direct benefit to the perpetrator. Management fraud may involve an attempt to misstate financial performance in order to gain additional compensation or to earn a promotion. Management fraud may also involve an attempt to misstate financial performance in order to increase the price of the company's stock or to reduce the cost of debt. Management fraud is more insidious than employee fraud because it often escapes detection until the organization has suffered irreparable damage or loss. Management fraud usually does not involve the direct theft of assets.
