However, most of the culture studies focus on understanding social differences yet influence of culture on accounting has not drawn too much attention. Of the important variables on the rela-3 tionship between culture and accounting, ethics and fraud in the absence g of ethical conduct require attention. Companies that conduct accounting fraud do become the reflection of their country and culture. In this framework, the purpose of this study is to analyze and discuss the relationship between accounting fraud and culture from the perspective of Hofstede's four culture dimensions. Secondary data is used. Data related to culture is obtained from Hofstede's country classification index and data related to accounting fraud is obtained from Institutional Fraud/Ethics Index, which is compiled by Kaufman and printed by World Bank.
