Research Project
Generative artificial intelligence will affect the work of quantum and forensic experts in profound ways over the coming years. We are creating prediction models for ex-ante assessments of accounts warranty breaches and fraud in M&A transactions.
Our analysis identifies patterns in financial statements, the organisational structure of the acquired firm, or the M&A process that are associated with breaches of financial statement and other warranties and predict the probability of material accounting misrepresentations.
