In many of the country's companies, the “shrinkage account” is by no means small - it's far from small amounts that companies live with.

Fraud happens every single day, and unless organizations actively and effectively try to avoid it - well, the “fraud account” just grows bigger and bigger. It takes insight and understanding to minimize fraud - and maybe even be lucky enough to avoid it altogether. If the insight, understanding and competence do not lie within the company, yourCompany can help.

yourCompany is a nationwide security company

Christian Pejtersen - CEO of yourCompany - has many years of experience with fraud and deception. Not just from his time in the police and PET, but also from several years in the construction industry with a focus on reducing internal fraud. Today, yourCompany consists of four permanent employees and a bunch of consultants spread across the country. Christian says the following about the situation in the fraud and fraud area: “And there is plenty to do. Unfortunately, some might say. Because things are really bad with the morale of some employees or suppliers.”.

The investment in yourCompany is an income

Allying with the experts at yourCompany to reduce fraud and fraud in companies and getting help to analyze and dig into the problems should in no way be seen as an expense in the accounts. On the contrary, it should be seen as an income - and it is for yourCompany's customers. With the billions of dollars in fraud and waste in the construction industry, it often only takes a few changes in a few areas for the investment in yourCompany to show up as black numbers on the bottom line. And it's important to look at the company's entire business area - both internally and externally. This often involves both direct and indirect losses.

Shrinkage and fraud are calculated into the accounts

According to Christian Pejtersen, it's sad that many companies calculate fraud into their accounts. Some companies may calculate 2 million in losses on the “fraud account” and then at the end of the year find out that there was “only” 1.6 million kroner in fraud. Or worse - the companies find out that the amount is far above the calculated figure in the accounts. With yourCompany on the sidelines, it becomes possible to prevent and combat fraud, theft, loss of revenue and loss of customers.

Many companies lack a safety manager

At yourCompany, companies can hire a part-time or full-time security manager, depending on their needs. This makes the collaboration smooth, easy and manageable for both parties - and it also gives companies the opportunity to keep a close eye on the work and the bottom line. Outsourcing security tasks, for example, by working with yourCompany and getting help from professional and experienced people with previous backgrounds in the police and intelligence services, is used by many companies. “Another advantage of hiring yourCompany is that they can take care of something that others may feel conflicted,” explains Christian Pejtersen.

Where does the “disappearance” go?

Not only can yourCompany help prevent and limit fraud, but they can also track down the location where the “fraud” is located - after the fraud has taken place. With advanced equipment, yourCompany tracks down a house, for example, and then contacts the police, who then take over.
