Guide to the new ‘Failure to Prevent Fraud’ Corporate Offence

The Home Office has now published its government guidance on the corporate offence of failure to prevent fraud (the “FTPF Offence”), which was introduced in the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023. The new offence will come into force on 1 September 2025, giving companies a longer period to prepare than had been expected.

Adam Finch, Partner, Head of Commercial Disputes at HCR Law, takes us through what in-house legal teams need to be aware of and how to mitigate fraud within their organisations.
