Summary:Going concern is an assumption of company establishment but some companies go bankrupt. Fraud can be a cause of bankruptcy, used to hide bankruptcy, and can occur due to bankruptcy. Potential fraud can occur in every main activity of a curator in resolving bankruptcy cases so the curator requires forensic accounting. The purpose of this study was to determine the importance of forensic accounting in bankruptcy cases resolved by a curator and exploring the model of the relationship between bankruptcy and forensic accounting.

The respondents’ criteria were curators who had practiced for at least three years and had experiences in resolving bankruptcy assets. The data analysis was a content analysis, namely a relational analysis, with software Nvivo 11.
