Small Business & Entrepreneur Education Series. Session Nine -- Financial Fraud and Prevention
The Sherwood Chamber of Commerce and the City of Sherwood welcome residents from all over the region to join us in a virtual educational series for entrepreneurs and existing and start-up small businesses.
March 18th session: Financial Fraud and Prevention -- Current trends and ways to protect your business against check fraud and other risks.
For businesses simply trying to navigate through the pandemic and stay afloat, this presentation aims to help business owners avoid yet another pitfall- becoming an unsuspecting victim of payments fraud. From a banker’s perspective, learn how you may be vulnerable and what steps you can take to fortify your business. Lee will help you transition from a mindset of reaction to a posture of prevention through the adoption of effective best practices and utilization of proactive fraud prevention tools.Presenter -- Lee Hicks, VP Treasury Management Consultant, Banner Bank
