The population used is financial reporting at several international companies in 2019-2024.

The sample in the research used a purposive sampling method where sampling was based on the author's considerations. The results show that the occurrence of fraud/fraud in financial statements is caused by several factors in accordance with the fraud triangle theory where there are 3 factors that cause individuals/groups to commit fraud/cheating, namely pressure, opportunity, and justification/rationalization so that a person/group assumes that fraud is a normal action and occurs in many companies.
