 Dr. Mudith Sujeewa Gamlath Senior Lecturer Department of Accountancy, University of Kelaniya It is with great pleasure that I write this message as a successful PhD holder at the Management and Science University of Malaysia (MSU). I selected one of the contemporary issues, the Determinants of Employee Frauds in Public Sector Entities in Sri Lanka. In this complex, uncertain and digitized environment, public sector entities are exposed to greater level of fraud risk and therefore should more focus on fraud risk and how to manage fraud risk by inculcating ethical culture to improve the integrity among the employees to reduce employee frauds. The findings derived from this study could provide insights to the management of the public sector entities, regulators, and policy makers on the ways of how to manage fraud risk and reduce fraud in public sector entities in Sri Lanka.
