| Opis: | Fraud is linked to economic and financial pressures that force people to
commit it. Any fraud, regardless of the gender and age of the fraud perpetrators,
inevitably leaves a short-term or long-term negative mark on society's
economy. Many financial frauds in the past (Enron, WorldCom, Parmalat)
have left profound negative consequences on global financial markets. Such
"financial strikes" on the financial markets led to financial losses of many
companies (not only those in which frauds were committed), the dismissal of
many workers, and even the bankruptcy of companies. Successful detection
and prevention of fraud imply the harmonious and efficient operation of
several factors. One of them understands people’s attitudes towards fraud.
It is necessary to understand what motivates an individual to commit fraud
and the conditions under which someone would commit fraud. Plenty of
resources and time have been invested in understanding the motives for
adult fraud, i.e., mature people. Experience has shown that it is much more
challenging to educate people of that era about the harmful effects of
fraud and thus convince them not to commit fraud. For these reasons, the
subject of this paper is the consideration of the attitudes of the younger
population towards fraud in Serbia. More precisely, the paper discusses the
attitudes of young people aged 18 to 30 regarding motives, pressures, and
opportunities to commit fraud, participate in corruption, or offer bribes. The
main objective is to indicate the tendency of young people to participate in
fraud and examine whether respondents’ gender influences their willingness
to participate in fraud. The research results suggest that, according to young
people, the main motive why someone would participate in fraud is financial
gain and that young people would participate in fraud only if they could get
medical intervention sooner. They also believe that fraud is most prevalent
in public administration and that men are more prone to fraud than women,
but that the influence of gender is very small. |
