Piercing the Corporate Veil |
| KAAN Group experts use their experience to assist in determining a fraud, where the corporation is found to be a
"sham" meant to facilitate fraud against third parties. If the corporation was set up, for example, to shield its owner from
liability over a fraudulent real estate deal, and the owners
siphon out the corporate assets such that the corporation is unable to compensate the victims of the fraud. Did the principals use the corporation to advance personal purposes? |
| |
|
Reasonable Compensation Studies |
| KAAN Group can create a maximum reasonable compensation estimate by job, location, organization size,
and industry. Reasonable Compensation refers to the level of compensation which is considered "within market range" for a particular position. When determining reasonableness, a
detailed market study must be conducted which considers several factors in order to make a reasonableness determination. |

|
Corporate Internal Investigations / Embezzlement |
| Embezzlement is a breach of the fiduciary responsibilities placed upon a person. The nature of embezzlement
can be both small and large. Embezzling funds can be as minor as a store
clerk pocketing a few bucks from a cash register; however, on the grander
scale, embezzlement also occurs
when the executives of large companies falsely expense millions of dollars,
transferring the funds into personal accounts. |
