FINANCIAL-CRIME SOLUTIONS

Fraud detection
Connect suspicious signals to a clear response.

Help banks assess suspicious account and payment activity and connect risk signals with their response processes.

What this solution does

Fraud detection supports the assessment of suspicious account and payment events under operational time pressure. Banks need to understand the signal, the surrounding context and the response options available within their own processes. This solution area focuses on making those signals usable for fraud operations and subsequent investigation.

The challenge

Fraud teams must act quickly while balancing missed fraud against unnecessary disruption to legitimate customers. Each alert needs clear response responsibilities and supporting evidence.

What your teams can do

01

Payment-risk signals

Bring relevant payment events into a clearer fraud-review context.

02

Account context

Consider permitted account information alongside suspicious activity.

03

Response coordination

Support bank-owned investigation and response decisions with understandable findings.

04

Related account events

Consider relevant changes and activity alongside the payment under review. Use the account context the institution is authorised to provide.

05

Clear response ownership

Connect findings with the teams responsible for customer contact and payment handling. Keep the bank’s response authority explicit.

06

Reviewed outcomes

Preserve the conclusion of an investigation and the supporting context. Help teams understand how a concern was resolved.

Data quality and review evidence

These capabilities are included within this product’s agreed scope.

Data quality & record context

Highlight missing or inconsistent account/payment context that affects a fraud assessment. Preserve original event references used by the investigating team.

Audit & compliance evidence

Keep relevant risk signals, supporting event information and reviewed outcomes connected. Record the context of bank-owned response decisions where supplied.

Who it helps

  • Payment-fraud operations
  • Account-protection teams
  • Fraud investigators and response managers

Banking use cases

Illustrative situations showing how the solution can support a bank’s work; these are not customer case studies.

EXAMPLE 01

A payment after an account change

An account change is followed by an unusual transfer. The fraud team can assess the available context and decide whether customer contact or another bank-controlled response is appropriate.

EXAMPLE 02

A customer reports a concern

A customer reports a payment they do not recognise. Investigators can organise related events and findings to support a documented assessment of the incident.

Value for your institution

For fraud operations

An understandable signal and supporting context can help teams respond coherently.

For investigators

Keep account events, payment information and investigation outcomes connected.

For customers

Support a coordinated institutional response when a payment concern needs attention.

Common questions

Does a fraud signal automatically block a payment?

Payment actions are controlled by the bank’s agreed response process. Detection and transaction authorisation remain distinct responsibilities.

Can every type of fraud be prevented?

No. Useful coverage depends on the available information and agreed scenarios; software cannot guarantee the prevention of all losses.

Shape the right engagement

Discuss the fraud scenarios, available signals and operational response expectations relevant to your institution.

Define the relevant business scope, permitted information, review responsibilities and practical acceptance needs with your institution. This creates a clear basis for discussing delivery and support.
