“This economy has a major impact on financial organizations. People are under increased pressure and we are looking carefully for fraud exposures.” -- Jerry Furman, Senior Vice President/Chief Auditor, Fulton Financial Corporation
As part of the highly-regulated banking industry, Fulton Financial has spent years developing strong financial controls to identify and resolve potential risks early.
Although Fulton is not exposed to as much fraud risk as some larger financial organizations, the company still wants to take any necessary precautions to protect its human and capital resources.
In keeping with those efforts, the company chose a partnership with EthicsPoint to strengthen its controls by providing employees with a safe, anonymous way to report any suspected fraud or misconduct.
