A sound banking system is necessary for the effective functioning of the financial sector and for achieving good economic growth. The banking industry has experienced phenomenal growth in recent years. This growth is however associated with increasingly complex scams and frauds that hurt banks and their customers. Scams and frauds are better prevented than stopped. Hence, it is proposed here, among other measures, that: (1) customers and staff be trained regularly on early warning signs of scams/ frauds; (2) the functions and oversight roles of top executives, and key IT and audit staff is switched regularly; and (3) regular forensic survey is conducted to determine the fraud/ scam threats posed by employees and top executives, and the outcomes acted upon as soon as possible. Although banks can't be 100% secure against unknown threats, a certain level of preparedness will go a long way in countering scam/ fraud risks.
