 Special 2-Day Course Presented by a Former New-Scotland Yard Investigation Expert

Fraud is a problem which permeates the entire insurance industry.

Each year insurance companies pay out millions of dollars in insurance claims, many of which are undetected frauds.

A thorough investigation of suspected fraudulent or exaggerated insurance claims is therefore necessary to reduce this high cost.

An Insurance Claims Manager best describes the importance of acquiring fraud investigation techniques. He says, "As claims increase in volume and value, so does fraud. We need to know how to prevent it and deal with it. We all require training in both traditional and modern methods of insurance fraud detection".

This course will help any investigator regardless of experience level in developing a better work product as it relates to investigation of insurance claims.

The up-to-date techniques taught by former New Scotland Yard investigation expert Alan Marr can also be used in other investigations.

Alan has presented the topic very well. His vast experience in investigation has made the seminar easily understood.
