Misappropriation occurs when an individual takes or misuses money or property for unauthorized purposes. In a corporate setting, misappropriation can occur by company executives, accountants, treasurers, or anyone who has access to company property. While money is commonly the focus of misappropriation (also referred to as embezzlement) there are other ways for misappropriation to occur including the theft of:

  • Trade secrets
  • Petty cash
  • Inventory and supplies
  • Letters and documents
