Reno, Nevada, January 2, 2013 - (PressReleasePoint) - Tim Nelson, a partner at Evan Nelson & Company, CPAs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cu0GRqDHFHM. A leading CPA firm in Reno describes in a new video what the fraud triangle is and how it is useful to business and business owners. In the video, Tim explains that business fraud occurs based on three main reasons - opportunity, motivation, and rationalization. He further goes to explain that understanding why people commit fraud can help to set guidelines or deterrent for the protection of business and business assets.

"I have been doing research and investigation of fraud and forensic accounting matters for about twelve years, and love it! The “sleuthing” of accounting really gets me going.  I love seeing how the fraudster got away with it, assisting law enforcement in putting away the bad guys, or even resolving how an owner is stealing from his partners!  It can be complex or as simple as fixing procedures around the office to deter employees or customers from making off with the valuable assets of the company." said Tim Nelson

He has served as the CFO, CEO, president, and other levels of executive for a casino-gaming establishment that grossed $25 million a year.
