In this webinar we tackle a topic that doesn’t factor into many senior financial leader’s agendas all that often or until something happens: fraud in the workplace.
Occupational fraud is a giant global industry. Organizations are losing an estimated 5% of revenues to employee fraud each year according to the experts at the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE). Does that statistic shock you? Are you in disbelief that the number could be so high? In this course, we discuss how employees are doing it, how we can detect it, and most importantly, what can be done to prevent it in the first place.
Using the research of the ACFE to look at the fraud cases under investigation, we will reach a deeper understanding of this issue. You will be astounded, you may be surprised, but the goal of this webinar is to make you enlightened.
