The Virginia Banking eNewsletter is a monthly supplement to Virginia Banking magazine, intended to help you stay on top of industry knowledge via current trends data and insights. Through the Safe Banking for Seniors program, banks have the opportunity to educate older Americans in their community about how to bank more securely. After registering for the program, banks receive access to free presentation planning tools, lessons plans, a social media guide and press materials. Bankers can learn more about this program by visiting www.vabankers.org/safe-banking-for-seniors. This recent New York Times article spotlights the recently enacted Senior Safe Act as well as banks’ efforts to detect and prevent financial fraud targeting seniors.
