Times of crisis create additional pressures for business leaders and can often provide a catalyst for disreputable behaviour. With the coronavirus pandemic putting businesses across the economy under significant strain, the likelihood of a wave of new mismanagement cases – from contract disputes to serious fraud – is on the increase.

When these cases come to the attention of the courts, potentially 12 to 18 months from now, it will be the responsibility of forensic investigation teams and technologists to uncover and unravel the misdeeds in question – misdeeds that will have had far-reaching consequences for the businesses concerned, as well as their employees, suppliers and customers.
