6. Conclusion

The implementation of an anti-fraud plan enables a company to identify and prioritize fraud risks, in order to reduce its vulnerability and protect itself from a crisis in the event of a fraud incident. However, this system needs to be regularly updated, as the fight against fraud is a never-ending race, with each new fraud uncovered giving way to a new one.

Monitoring this system also requires the company's various players to take an interest in other factors, such as the latest news on raw materials, the climatic or geopolitical context of supply countries, and so on. Although these issues were not previously part of their usual concerns, operators are now having to adapt to the new requirements and risks associated with the increasing globalization of food supplies in a tense economic climate.
