Lincoln Investment Promotes Awareness for Elder Abuse Prevention

Lincoln Investment Advocates for Elder Abuse Awareness
World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, recognized globally, aims to educate and encourage communities to recognize and prevent abuse against older individuals. Lincoln Investment is proud to champion this essential cause by empowering our financial professionals with vital education and resources. Our goal is to enhance awareness and equip investors with the knowledge they need to protect themselves against financial exploitation.
Understanding the Importance of Awareness and Education
Lincoln Investment emphasizes that many older adults fall victim to scams and fraud due to a lack of awareness. "Statistics indicate that numerous individuals are tricked out of their life savings every year, amounting to billions of dollars. Education is key in countering this trend," explained Nancy Heffner, CRCP, Vice President, and Deputy Chief Compliance Officer.
By educating clients on common scams and manipulation tactics, we aim to help them recognize warning signs. Awareness is the first step in preventing financial exploitation, and Lincoln Investment is committed to fostering this awareness among its client base and financial professionals.
Resources for Protecting Clients
To combat the rising threat of financial exploitation, Lincoln Investment encourages the appointment of a trusted contact person (TCP) on financial accounts. Having a TCP can significantly aid in identifying potential fraudulent activities and serve as a vital resource in the event of a crisis. Lincoln Investment offers various resources, including informative videos and printable flyers, to assist financial professionals in discussing the importance of TCPs with their clients.
Moreover, our company provides thorough training for all associates on how to recognize and report instances of financial exploitation specifically targeting seniors and vulnerable investors. This initiative is part of our broader commitment to protecting our clients and safeguarding their financial wellbeing.
