Financial & Retailers Protection Association

Since 1997, the Financial and Retailers Protection Association (FRPA), has been the Midwest leader and non-profit organization dedicated exclusively to fighting financial and serious retail property crimes. It is the only organization in the United States that focuses on local concerns and looks for global property crime trends to prevent, identify and deter these types of crimes.

Your Partner in Fighting Financial Crimes.

With more than 1,200 registered users, FRPA has formed a strategic partnership between law enforcement, retailers and financial institutions. Our goal is to not only alert and educate on regarding financial fraud trends, but to assist in making it easier for our groups to work together.

Keeping you informed.

Members of FRPA receive alerts to a variety of financial fraud situations. We gather local and national information so you don’t have to. Much of our information can be used for educating your staff. All information is kept confidential to members only and is screened by FRPA prior to posting. This is a great way to share important information to members of your community fast! Join today and be part of the partnership!

Education is a strong weapon in the fight against financial crimes.

Ever wonder where you can learn from banking or law enforcement experts about financial crime? We are offering in-person classes and webinars that use experts in both fields to help educate your team. We also offer Personalized On-Site Training (term??) to financial institutions, law enforcement agencies and retails. Our team of experts have over 100 years of cumulative experience.
