About This Session

While a growing number of reporters know how to dig into shell companies and hidden assets for “follow-the-money” investigations into fraud and corruption, many struggle with crunching of the numbers they've uncovered. In this workshop, a veteran journalist equips attendees with the ability to compute and work with percentages, rates, currencies, financial indicators, and the kind of mathematics that can be an investigator's friend.
