Becoming an IFP Affiliate

International Research Consortium:

The IFP’s affiliated scholars include many of the top anti-fraud scholars and practitioners in the world. IFP can provide world class research into the weaknesses that that allow fraud to proliferate and best practices to reduce fraud.

Membership in the IFP’s research consortium is by invitation. The requirements for membership include the identification by the institution of at least two scholars that have substantial expertise in fraud and/or corruption and are willing to participate actively in IFP’s mission and governance, written acceptance from the institution of IFP’s invitation to join the consortium and agreement that consortium members will only speak on behalf of the IFP with the express permission of the IFP’s Executive Director. Consortium members and their scholars, of course, remain free to speak on their own without restriction from the IFP.
