Prevention and mitigation strategies can mean the difference between a thriving enterprise and a shop closing its doors. Fraud incidents tend to disproportionately affect small businesses, since the relative size of a financial loss makes up a much bigger chunk of revenue compared with larger organizations.

Compounding the problem is the duration of fraud. Because small businesses are less likely to spend the time and money needed to reduce risk, fraud is more likely to endure for longer periods before being detected. The median time to detect an internal fraud scheme is 14 months. This means businesses must be looking for both internal and external threats at all times, and financial institution can play a big role in helping to educate them.

Smaller businesses also have fewer fraud controls than larger organizations and, as a result, become victims more frequently. For example, billing and payroll fraud at small businesses occur at twice as often compared with larger organizations, while check and payment tampering occur at four times the rate.

Banks and credit unions can help small businesses integrate fraud prevention awareness into their workflows to help prevent fraud and minimize its impact.

Businesses face the threat of malware, viruses, and business identity theft along with the hacking of company trade secrets, payment information, customer PII and vendor records.
