Since Luke first joined KPMG in 2002, he has spent his career working as a forensic accountant on matters across Asia Pacific, Europe, Central and South America. He particularly enjoys the variety of the cases that he is engaged on - with each new case comes a unique set of challenges to work through. His experience has ranged from leading small and large complex investigations into fraud, bribery and corruption to the preparation of independent expert reports on business interruption, economic loss and post-acquisition disputes.
A considerable part of Luke’s work is the analysis of large volumes of data and the preparation of comprehensive reports that enable his clients and the courts to quickly navigate complex issues. The advances in data analytics and forensic technology tools enable Luke and his team to rapidly navigate through all types of structured and unstructured data to isolate pertinent information.
