Unclaimed Property: Why Your Company Can't Afford NOT to Be in Compliance

It is critical to your company's financial well-being to avoid the risks of not complying with unclaimed property reporting laws.

Nearly all organizations have the potential to generate unclaimed property in various aspects of their everyday operations. It could be something as simple as an employee who doesn't cash a payroll check or more complex issues involving IRA accounts with an owner who's non-responsive. Navigating state escheat law(s) can be a challenge, and with penalties and interest assessed for non-compliance, this compliance concern can no longer be on the back burner. This presentation will help those responsible for unclaimed property compliance understand how to accurately comply with state law. The live webinar also explains the consequences of non-compliance as well as ways to start reporting if your organization has never filed before. Failing to have a proper compliance program is becoming a great risk for many organizations as states are increasing audit and outreach activity. This workshop will also cover asset recovery. Attendees will learn some of the tips of the trade to help recover money for themselves and their organization.
