Summary

Banking and financial fraud have become some of the most significant and rapidly evolving risks facing businesses today. As companies strengthen internal controls, fraudsters adapt their tactics, leveraging increasingly sophisticated techniques including spoofed emails, AI-generated voice impersonations and compromised vendor accounts designed to exploit financial processes. For financial executives, protecting company assets now requires constant vigilance and an understanding that yesterday’s controls may not be sufficient for tomorrow’s threats.

At our next session, Combatting Banking & Financial Fraud, we will examine the current fraud landscape through the perspectives of a financial crimes’ expert, a commercial insurance specialist, and finance executives who have firsthand experience navigating these challenges. The discussion will explore how fraud schemes continue to evolve, where organizations remain most vulnerable, and the steps finance leaders can take to strengthen controls, reduce risk, and respond effectively when incidents occur.

We will discuss practical strategies for preventing fraud, strengthening internal controls, educating employees, and working effectively with insurance and banking partners. We will also explore the role of cyber and commercial crime insurance, common coverage gaps, and how organizations can better position themselves before an event occurs. This conversation will provide practical, actionable insights to help financial executives strengthen their defenses and stay ahead of an increasingly dynamic threat landscape.

Seating will be limited, so financial executives interested in attending should RSVP to Bill Bardani: bill.bardani@visionsearchpartners.com.

This session is eligible for 1.5 CPE credits for CPAs.
