An auditor often follows the Generally Accepted Auditing Principles (GAAP), whereas a Forensic Accountant has to think out of the box to investigate financial frauds – as each case may have a different modus operandi. 

 

While the primary responsibility of an Auditor is to comment on the “truth and fair value” of the accounting and business practices carried out by an organization, the forensic accountant is responsible for establishing facts and gathering evidence of misappropriation or fraud and quantify the losses along with identifying the perpetrator.

The term ‘forensic” refers to any piece of information that can be presented as an evidence in a court of law. A forensic Audit Report often acts as a crucial evidence for establishing fraudulent intent and quantifying the losses arising out of a white-collar crime.

Forensic Accountants may also be involved in alternate dispute resolution (ADR) due to their legal awareness and familiarity with the workings of the judicial system. The opinions and testimonies of forensic accountants are often sought in courts of law and other mediations.
