ACFE Members Possess an Unflinching Resolve

FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO

Bruce Dorris, J.D., CFE, CPA

If there's one thing the ACFE and its members know, it's that the world never stops changing.

Technology evolves. Fraudsters adapt. New threats emerge.

All the while, you are there at the forefront, pushing yourselves to keep up with each dramatic twist and turn.

This year, we've traveled to several countries, meeting many of you all over the world — Singapore, Abu Dhabi, Zurich and even our hometown of Austin, Texas — and what strikes me about each interaction is that you all possess an unflinching resolve.

This resolve carries you through each challenge, each hurdle, each setback. It buoys you up when it seems like the fraudsters might be winning. This resolve is with you, step by step, as you pave new, unforeseen paths in the anti-fraud profession. It is a privilege to witness.

As we head into another year of preventing, detecting and deterring fraud, please take a moment to join me and the ACFE in commending all that you and your fellow members accomplished by visiting the 2019 Report to Members, where we’ve not only captured many of your accomplishments from the past year but also share a few things we can all look forward to in 2020.
