Mitigating Payment & Wire Fraud in M&A Transactions - Webinar
M&A deals often involve transfers of a significant sum of money, which makes them a good target for scammers. This program will use the Sorenson case, in which hackers stole $130 million by impersonating a selling shareholder in an M&A deal, as a launching point to discuss best practices when working with third party vendors, as well as how technology can protect your clients from becoming victims.
CBA-CLE will email webinar access information 24-48 hours before the program.
Home studies will be available 2-3 weeks following the live program.
CBA-CLE is committed to providing access, equal opportunity, and reasonable accommodation in its services, programs, and employment. To request an accommodation please contact [email protected] at least 14 business days in advance.
The program is accredited in Colorado. CBA-CLE staff can provide a Uniform Certificate of Attendance, and it is the attendee's responsibility to complete the accreditation outside of Colorado.
