WEBINAR DETAILS

Account fraud has caused staggering losses to financial institutions and the losses continue to increase. Your institution’s liability for forged checks, counterfeit checks, ACH fraud, remotely created and deposited items, and unauthorized electronic items varies depending on the type of fraud, how it occurred, and whether it was a consumer or commercial account. There are numerous applicable laws – and they are mindboggling. This webinar will cover some of the latest fraud schemes, address which law applies in each situation, and explain your institution’s liability – and how to reduce it.
