Does Fraud concern you?
According to
research conducted by the Association of Certified Fraud
Examiners (ACFE), U.S. organizations lose an estimated 7
percent of annual revenues to fraud. When applied to the
2008 U.S. Gross Domestic Product this percentage translates
to a staggering estimate of losses around $994 billion among
organizations, despite an increased emphasis on anti-fraud
controls and recent legislation to combat fraud.
