FACTS
82% Failure Rate
82% of small businesses fail because of poor financial planning
Managing Risks
Although competent people are an important aspect of managing risk, management’s reliance on them without limits, checks and balances and without independent monitoring and reporting is as ill-advised as not understanding the risks inherent in their activities.
$145,000 Median Loss
According to the ACFE, the median loss caused by fraud was $145,000, with 22% of those cases reporting losses of at least $1 million. Identity theft and cybercrime—especially credit card abuse—were among some of the most common sources of fraud in small businesses.
Compliance Risks
A systemic disregard for regulations, or “noncompliance”
can ultimately result in governmental reviews, costly fines, damaged reputation, and even lawsuits.
