Bankruptcy fraud is the use of deceptive means to conceal assets or liabilities during a bankruptcy filing. The fraud is often used as a way to secure  the benefits of bankruptcy protection,  while  still maintaining certain  assets.

Executives will often engage in bankruptcy fraud by using a number of different strategies. These strategies could include mistating assets or liabilities, temporarily transferring assets to a third party, or creating concealed subsidiaries to hold  the  assets.
