Elder Care Victimization: When Trusted Individuals
Become Trust Violators: One CE Webinar
(December 8th, 2:00 pm EST)
According to a recent combined study from MetLife Mature
Market Institute (MMI), The National Committee for the
Prevention of Elder Abuse (NCPEA), The Center for Gerontology at
Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University entitled,
"Broken Trust: Elders, Family and Finances" reports that the
annual financial loss by victims of elder financial abuse is
estimated to be at least $2.6 billion dollars. It is vitally
important for attorneys and any persons who help the elderly
with their finances which could be Counselors, Financial
Planners, Accountants, Insurance Agents, etc. to be educated
about fraud and financial ethics when it comes to family
financial fraud. Often times, it may only be the client's
attorney or financial advisor who can uncover and reveal
financial abuse that can be occurring within a client's trusted
relationship.
Webinar leader/instructor Peggy Tracy, MBA, CFP®, CDFA®, CFE,
having extensive training on fraud criminology relating to
