    Assessment of the Effectiveness of the Internal Control System in the Prevention of Fraud in Dashen Bank S.C
    (A.A.U, 2024-09-12) Daniel Beyene; Abebe Yitayew
    The study assessed the effectiveness of the internal control system in preventing fraud at Dashen Bank. A descriptive research design was utilized, incorporating both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The research involved 193 employees working in various work units within the bank, including the risk and compliance office, internal audit offices, and branches located in Addis Ababa. The study found that internal control techniques implemented by the bank have been effective in preventing fraud. However, some gaps were identified in the bank's risk identification, assessment of fraud and other risks, and systems for responding to risks effectively. There were also deficiencies in responsibility rotation, employee recruitment and retention, communication with external parties, and the use of transaction monitoring technology. The study recommended that Dashen Bank enhance its risk identification strategy, improve risk assessment processes, adopt advanced technological solutions, establish rotation procedures, enhance recruitment practices, offer targeted development opportunities, prioritize employee retention, promote diversity and inclusion, and create a feedback-rich environment. By enhancing internal control systems and incorporating technological solutions, banks can effectively prevent fraud, build customer trust, and ensure stakeholder confidence.
