Title: Economic Crimes Survey: Brazil, 2009

Summary: It is with great pleasure that PricewaterhouseCoopers presents the 5th Global Economic Crimes Survey - 2009, developed with the ultimate goal of capturing the perception of respondents regarding economic crimes, especially in the environment of the economic downturn experienced in the last 12 months. The survey addresses how the effects of the crisis have triggered economic crimes and how the post-crisis economic recovery may impact this crisis-stricken environment. By examining the data, the relationship between the crisis and the incidence of economic crimes can be established, bearing in mind that the countries least affected by the economic slowdown recorded lower occurrences of fraud in comparison with the global figures. Although Brazil has stood out for its resistance and power to bounce back, the global economic downturn environment has contributed to making the country more susceptible to frauds as well as impairing its ability to perceive and monitor the occurrence of economic crimes in a timely manner. For Brazil, 40% of respondents reported a sharp drop in their financial performance in the last 12 months, whereas the global perception was 62% in the same period. In regard to the incidence of economic crimes in the same period, the rates in Brazil were lower than the global figures, namely, 24% for Brazil and 30% globally.
