Corporate Ministry to set up new intelligence unit to detect corporate frauds

31 Dec 2012 Evaluate

Corporate affairs minister Sachin Pilot, concerned with growing number of financial frauds has announced the setting up of a new intelligence unit that will delve into data mining from all possible sources to detect any wrongdoings by the companies and their promoters at the earliest possible stage.

The work of Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) will be supplemented by the new division which is primarily aimed to spot early warnings by analyzing the vast amount of electronic data available with the ministry. “The idea is to have a set of people to do the data mining, collection and checking of records that is available on various platforms, and link them with the inputs from investigating agencies”, Pilot said.

Further, Pilot said that SFIO should be brought into picture only when there is a larger public interest involved or when something is going to have far reaching implications. The new Companies Bill contains special provisions for fraud and grants statutory status to SFIO, which is expected to curb wrongdoings in the corporate world.

Moreover, experts also agree that investigations into a number of corporate frauds, including the high-profile Satyam scam, in the past have shown that many of them could have been detected at an earlier stage by a stronger oversight mechanism.
