Does Fraud concern you?
According to research conducted by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE), U.S. organizations lose an estimated 5 percent of annual revenues to fraud.  Based on the U.S. Gross Domestic Product in 2006 -$13,037 billion - this percentage indicates a staggering estimate of losses around $652 billion among organizations, despite an increased emphasis on anti-fraud controls and recent legislation to combat fraud.
