3. Link analysis and timeline analysis Link analysis enables analysts and investigators to map connections between individuals, companies, tax declarations, invoices, financial accounts and transactions. Investigators can trace several levels of connections to uncover suspicious activity, tax fraud and evasion, including sophisticated evasion schemes that are hard to detect manually or with traditional tools. The timeline analysis capability organizes all types of activities (financial transactions, tax declarations, travel records, etc.) on a unified timeline to help investigators detect suspicious patterns and trends. The link analysis and activity timeline widgets make it much easier for tax investigators to detect complex fraud schemes, such as missing trader VAT fraud. Investigators can track connections between individuals, companies, and customs documentation, and place events on a chronological timeline in order to unravel a complex chain of events, and determine whether VAT fraud (or another type of fraud) has taken place.
