Maine Retail Bank Selects Edcomm Banker’s Academy to Deliver Elder Financial Abuse Training

A Maine Retail Bank has selected Edcomm Banker’s Academy to deliver Focus on Elder Financial Abuse — The Edcomm Group Banker’s Academy’s eLearning program on Elder Financial Abuse Compliance training.

With more than 5 million cases per year, financial abuse of elders is the #1 crime committed against persons age 65 and older. Currently, 17 states and Washington, D.C. have passed laws that require employees of banks, credit unions and money service businesses to report suspected cases of elder financial abuse. Another 33 states recommend it. Congress is expected to pass the Elder Justice Act, which will make this federal law.

Focus on Elder Financial Abuse, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, is a comprehensive eLearning program providing training on issues related to elder financial abuse. The course covers: defining elder financial abuse and the laws governing it, detecting the red flags of elder financial abuse, and reporting elder financial abuse properly. Focus on Elder Financial Abuse is geared towards teaching participants how to identify elder abuse and how to protect both their customers and the bank, with accurate, compliant reporting.
