Wednesday, February 12 | 12:00 - 1:00 PM CST | 1.0 CPE

A lack of documented and implemented processes and controls surrounding payroll and other plan administration practices is leading to a range of errors and compliance issues within employee benefit plans. Payroll fraud schemes are among the most common forms of occupational fraud worldwide, according to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE).

For enhanced accuracy, efficiency and compliance within employee benefit plans, Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers solutions and is reshaping how organizations approach these audits.
