One of them is the Baitul Maal wa Tamwil (BMT), this institution serves savings and funding to the middle and lower communities by picking up the ball. With this system, it will be an opportunity for human resources (SDI) who are less loyal and responsible with their institutions to commit fraud or irregularities. Therefore, this study aims to find out how triangle fraud affects the occurrence of fraud in BMT. The research method uses independent path analysis with a sample of 84 respondents from the marketing department, supervisors, and financing managers.
