The effect of enterprise risk management on prevention and detection fraud in Indonesia’s local government

It may sound familiar to use Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) to prevent and identify fraud. However, the use of this well-known strategy in municipal administration is still uncommon. Fraud is a major concern in local government fiscal management. We acquired 151 data points from the Supervisory Apparatus of Local Government Agencies in Indonesia using a questionnaire. To test the hypothesis, this study employs regression analysis. According to the findings, the control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring all have a significant impact on fraud prevention and detection. This work contributes empirically to the use of Enterprises Risk Management to minimize and identify fraud in Indonesian local governments.
