Instances of fraud and data breaches are sky-high, leaving many credit union executives worried their institutions may be targeted next. To get a better sense of the fraud risks that have you concerned – and what you're doing to mitigate them – CU Times created a comprehensive reader survey.
Please complete our survey at this link so we can measure and share your thoughts about internal and external fraud threats, how your credit union has handled the burdens of past fraud incidents, and how you're keeping your institution and its employees safe as the risks continue to climb.
The results will be published in CU Times' first fraud research paper and distributed to the credit union community to help our readers benchmark their efforts against others. To demonstrate our appreciation for your time, we'll enter you into a drawing for one of four $25 gift cards when you provide your name and contact information at the end of the survey.
Thank you in advance for participating!
