7:00am - 7:50am The Dark Triad of Ethicality: How Illusory Superiority, Bounded Ethicality, and Confirmation Bias Impact Ethical Decision-Making

While financial professionals often have the best intentions, certain mental processes can interfere with objectivity. Three particular maladies, referred to as illusory superiority, bounded ethicallity and confirmation bias, can indirectly lead to flawed conclusions and examinations — which can directly affect credibility. This session will uncover methods to ensuring a fair and impartial fraud examination can be conducted. Attend this session and receive one (1) additional hour of CPE credit (9 hours total).

Key highlights:

Create mental triggers to improve ethical outcomes
Determine how perception affects decision-making
Evaluate methods to mitigate the negative effects of power and myopic vision
Identify the effects of abstraction on risk assessment and mitigation
Generate different perspectives and frames to improve objectivity
