Structural equation modelling (SEM) and conventional thematic analysis were used to analyse data. The results may significantly guide NGOs and their funders, auditors, regulators, professional bodies, and academia on the use of proactive forensic audit techniques to proactively prevent, detect and respond to fraud risks in NGO’s context.
