• New Feedzai research of anti-money laundering (AML) professionals unveiled the most significant threats and solutions to AML processes
• 46% state that increasingly sophisticated money laundering techniques, including generative AI technology, is one of the biggest threats their business faces
• 53% note that the majority of money laundering activity they encounter is linked to cryptocurrencies
• AI is the preferred solution to tackle financial crime, with 60% of respondents already seeing its positive effects in driving efficiencies in their AML processes and 51% viewing it as a critical element of future AML programs

San Mateo, Calif: AI is the most effective method for improving anti-money laundering (AML) processes and efficiencies according to AML professionals, research from Feedzai,  a leading provider of financial crime and risk management solutions

Feedzai’s The State of Global Anti Money Laundering Compliance Report 2023 surveyed compliance professionals to discover what the biggest threats and opportunities are in the AML ecosystem. It found that 46% of AML professionals are concerned about increasingly sophisticated money laundering techniques, including generative AI. The threat from generative AI and linked technology is now the top challenge for AML professionals, overtaking regulation, cryptocurrency and blockchain, the top threats cited in 2022.

Despite no longer occupying the top spot, crypto still remains front of mind for AML professionals. Over half (53%) of those surveyed said that the money laundering activities within their scope are predominantly linked to cryptocurrency transactions. Cryptocurrencies’ anonymous and decentralized nature is being exploited to conceal the origins of illicit funds, exacerbating the challenges in detection and monitoring.

As criminals utilize increasingly sophisticated technology, so too do those seeking to protect consumers. A third (33%) of AML professionals say that AI and machine learning are the most effective method for preventing money laundering. Of those already adopting AI, 60% said that the technology has already been effective in driving efficiencies in their organization’s AML processes.

Looking ahead, over half (51%) of respondents believe that an increased use of AI and machine learning is the future of AML and KYC (Know Your Customer) programmes. With the potential to instantly analyze huge data sets, AI is already helping investigators identify bad actors and diffuse threats. As a result of AI integration, we’ll see improved KYC processes, reduced false positives and also a reduced cost burden on compliance professionals.

Nick Parfitt, Principal AML SME at Feedzai said, “Fraudsters are capitalizing on fast-developing technologies to trick existing AML programmes, in many cases using generative AI to their advantage. Our latest report reiterates the demand from AML professionals for their organizations to adopt AI in combination with human insight as a defensive weapon to improve their compliance process and efficiencies. 

“Banks and financial institutions are sitting on a wealth of data that they can use to better protect their customers and business. By taking a RiskOps approach, they can put this data to good use by creating a 360-degree view of customer risk that addresses the entire lifecycle of financial crime and compliance, , – helping to stop criminals in their tracks before they can do any damage .”

• Railgun delivers breakthroughs in accuracy, latency, and reliability, further enhancing Feedzai’s already industry-leading RiskOps Platform
• Patented AI technology is the latest innovation from Feedzai, which has invested over $100M to develop the world’s most comprehensive suite of products to fight financial crime

San Mateo, Calif.: Today Feedzai, a leading provider of financial crime and risk management solutions, is introducing Railgun, its next-generation AI engine designed to target and intercept financial fraud before it can occur. In order to scale, today’s risk engines force financial institutions to limit the data they use to make risk decisions – typically by looking only at a limited history of data, and by using only a subset of relevant data inputs. Railgun removes these constraints, so financial institutions can now use a complete history of all relevant data – enabling them to assess the likelihood of fraudulent activity with unprecedented accuracy.

As sophisticated criminals embrace new techniques using generative AI, and as financial crime surges, new AI-based fraud-fighting technologies like Railgun will be critical to protect both consumers and financial institutions. Railgun’s breakthrough technology is the result of years of intensive research and development, and the product of multiple Feedzai patents in the area of streaming analytics.

Fraud detection engines typically rely on risk profiles that capture customer information, such as transaction history over specific periods, and assess the likelihood of a fraudulent payment based on a real-time comparison between current transactional activity and past typical behaviors. In the past, fraud detection suffered from a paucity of data to build these risk profiles, but now  our digital age ensures almost limitless information. However, risk engines have struggled to keep up with this change, because storing profiles for numerous customers, cards, and terminals requires massive amounts of low-latency memory space at scale. As a result, current systems simplify data inputs and limit historical context, diminishing fraud detection accuracy in order to achieve scalability. And because updating risk profiles is an offline process that is time consuming and expensive, these systems are also less agile, taking more time to adapt to rapidly evolving fraud patterns. Altogether, the result is a failure to prevent significant financial crime.

Railgun’s patented technology addresses the compromises inherent in today’s fraud detection systems, delivering:

• Enhanced accuracy – Railgun enables real-time calculations based on data across much longer time windows, providing financial institutions with better observability and understanding of customer behaviors, resulting in more precise detection of suspicious activities.
• Greater agility – Early production results show that Railgun improves the speed of risk strategy updates by 4x or more, enabling swifter responses to emerging fraud threats. New rules become effective almost immediately and risk recalculation no longer imposes a heavy burden on data science teams.
• Scalability and lower latency – With Railgun financial institutions can confidently handle increasing transaction volumes without compromising accuracy or decision latency

Railgun is the latest innovation from Feedzai, which has invested over $100M to build its RiskOps platform, the world’s most comprehensive suite of solutions to combat financial crime. Feedzai invests heavily in fundamental research, and in the last three years has created nearly 100 patents and pending patents in the US and Europe, covering innovations in a wide variety of areas including applied AI and machine learning, fraud detection, streaming data processing and analytics, money laundering detection,  rules management, and AI explainability and fairness.

Pedro Barata, Chief Product Officer at Feedzai said, “As technology continues to evolve and tools such as AI become more readily accessible, fraud detection systems need to be able to keep pace and reliably combat criminal activity. Railgun is a significant weapon in the fight against financial crime, allowing banks and other financial institutions to accurately and cost-effectively turn the tide on the rising levels of fraud. With Railgun, banks no longer have to make assumptions or generalizations when it comes to risk profiling – helping protect millions of people worldwide.”

• The Chartis Enterprise Fraud Solutions, 2023: Market Update and Vendor Landscape covers several themes in the market for anti-fraud solutions
• Feedzai’s RiskOps Platform outperformed 21 other vendors in “Completeness of Offering”, reinforcing its ‘best in class’ cutting-edge technology in tackling financial crime

Latest version of the Feedzai RiskOps Platform features scam-specific machine learning models and other enhancements targeting the global epidemic of financial scams

San Mateo, Calif- 10th May 2023 – Feedzai, a leading provider of financial crime and risk management solutions, today announced significant enhancements to its RiskOps Platform, enabling banks to better protect their customers from a wide variety of financial scams. These new Feedzai ScamPrevent™ capabilities deliver industry-leading detection, classification, and interception of the widest variety of payment scams and financial fraud typologies.

Financial scams are an epidemic growing in both dollar volume and human impact. The FTC recently reported that between 2021 and 2023, losses from scams increased by 30% in the US. These losses are only the tip of the iceberg as globally only 7% of scams losses are reported, according to data from the Global Anti-Scam Alliance (GASA). As scammers now have access to generative AI using large language models (LLMs) to fashion increasingly sophisticated and realistic scams, these losses can only be expected to increase.

Most financial institutions employ multiple legacy point solutions that use rules-based approaches to identify different types of fraud, but fail to specifically target scams. These traditional approaches have three critical limitations:

1. They are siloed by channel, so they are susceptible to fraud typologies that operate across multiple banking products or payment platforms.
2. They identify fraud by either focusing on behavioral activity (such as biometrics, app and device usage patterns, malware incidence, and network activity), or financial activity (transactional data across one or more banking channels and platforms), but they don’t natively look at both together, which significantly limits the ability to rapidly diagnose a scam in progress.
3. They don’t quickly evolve to protect against new types of fraud as scammers continuously change their tactics;

Feedzai’s RiskOps platform is the only solution in the industry that employs a unified AI model to build a 360 degree view of customer risk,  monitoring a customer’s behavior and financial activity across the widest span of banking channels. Feedzai’s new ScamProtect™ capabilities build on this unique RiskOps approach to enhance the platform’s ability to identify and intercept scammers before their crimes impact customers, with:

• Improved AI-based detection. Significant improvements to Feedzai’s AI engine, based on learnings across multiple geographies and financial institutions, enable improved scam detection with reduced false positives.
• Custom scam rules. New capability to add bank-specific scam detection rules and thresholds on top of out-of-the-box AI detection delivers a rapid and customized response to new scam attacks;
• Early intervention. Digital signals, including behavioral biometrics and other non-transactional patterns, may suggest a customer could be a scam victim prior to them actually making a payment. New Feedzai features empower banks to identify these signals and create intervention and education opportunities earlier in the risk lifecycle.
• Inbound payments. To benefit from a scam, a scammer has to send money to an account they can control. New features enable monitoring of inbound payments as well as outbound to give banks multiple opportunities to stop a scam.
• Extended scam reporting. Customizable scam classification, performance metrics, and reporting.

“Consumer losses from scams are expected to surge as countries introduce or expand instant payment channels – like the US will do this year with the introduction of FedNow,” said Pedro Barata, Chief Product Officer of Feedzai. “The human impact of scams is particularly high as scammers tend to target vulnerable groups – the elderly, the economically disadvantaged, immigrant communities, and youth. As it becomes faster and easier to make payments, there is a growing need for new solutions that enable scams to be detected and intercepted before any money moves. With our new ScamProtect™ features, Feedzai delivers the industry’s most comprehensive approach to scam prevention.”

Recent data from McKinsey shows that when a customer is impacted by a scam, it is a make-or-break moment for their banking relationship. Their research shows that the difference in Net Promoter Score (NPS) of customers that had a “good” experience versus a “bad” experience when impacted by fraud was a massive 132 points. This data strongly suggests that banks that succeed in protecting their customers from scams will increase customer satisfaction and retention, while those that fail will see increased churn. 

Increasingly, consumers hold banks responsible for personal losses stemming from scams. A recent independent survey conducted by Censuswide on behalf of Feedzai found that in the US, 76% of respondents were very likely or somewhat likely to leave their bank if they were not refunded for losses they suffered in a financial scam.  In the UK, existing  rules making banks directly accountable for reimbursement of affected consumers are likely to be tightened later this year. Legislators in other countries are considering similar measures.

“In this environment of faster payments and more sophisticated scams, banks should look at proactive strategies to protect their customers from financial crime,” said Nuno Sebastiao, CEO of Feedzai. “We believe that banks which embrace a comprehensive RiskOps approach will outperform in customer satisfaction and retention, while minimizing losses from financial crime.” 

On June 14, Feedzai will host a webinar about the impact of scams on both banks and their customers, featuring financial crime thought leaders from GASA, Forrester, Which? and more.

• Feedzai’s new report reveals a lack of awareness of scams is putting many consumers at severe risk 
• Romance scams top the list of most common fraud type with one in 10 who have fallen victim losing more than $8,400 to scammers
• Fraudsters are adapting and increasingly taking advantage of unsuspecting consumers, luring them into becoming money mules with 42% approached on social media 
• Consumers believe it’s the responsibility of their bank to reimburse them should they be targeted, with 77% leaving their bank should they not be refunded
• Banks must adopt emerging technologies if they’re to tackle fraudsters and reassure their customers, with 53% feeling safer knowing their bank is using AI to protect them 

San Mateo, Calif, London, United Kingdom, April 17th 2023 – Feedzai, the world’s first RiskOps platform for financial risk management, has released its latest report – The Human Impact of Fraud and Financial Crime on Customer Trust in Banks. The report, based on research of 4,000 consumers in the UK and US, reveals how fraudsters are taking advantage of the widening fraud knowledge gap, outlining the urgent need for banks to educate and protect their customers with technology.

The report reveals that while over half (56%) of respondents have been a victim of a financial scam, many still lack the knowledge to detect and distinguish between the various types of financial crime.

Consequently, many consumers believe the responsibility for reimbursement lies with their bank, with over half (53%) believing they should be reimbursed if they fall victim to a scam or third-party fraud. If they weren’t refunded, three-quarters (77%) of respondents across the UK and US indicated they would leave their bank.

Romance tops the list but fraudsters are adapting 

Romance scams top the list as the most reported type of scam, with a third (36%) of respondents having either been personally scammed or knowing someone who has been a victim. Arguably one of the cruelest forms of consumer-facing fraud, fraudsters have targeted emotionally vulnerable people, with 13% of those scammed by fraudsters losing more than $8,400, causing significant distress.

However, Feedzai’s research found that romance scams are just one component of financial crime. Money mules, individuals whose bank accounts are used by fraudsters to transfer money, are becoming an increasingly prominent aspect of cybercriminals’ economic business models too.

In the US particularly, fraudsters are targeting unwitting consumers to become money mules. Nearly half of US consumers have been approached to receive funds, yet a quarter (24%) are unaware of the risks of being a money mule. In the UK, only a third (35%) of respondents had been approached to receive funds and seem more risk-aware, with only 17% unaware of the risks associated with being a money mule. Social media is the preferred platform for fraudsters with 42% of respondents approached on social media to become money mules.

AI drives reassurance but banks need to get it right 

As criminals get more aggressive and innovative, emerging technologies such as ChatGPT create a new set of challenges for banks and financial institutions in tackling financial crime.

In response, banks must act and also embrace innovative technology to protect their customers from fraudsters. AI holds huge potential to keep customers safe whilst also solidifying customer loyalty, with over half (53%) of respondents feeling safer knowing their bank uses AI to protect them.

However, the need for accuracy when using AI is vital  with 46% of respondents considering leaving their bank if it stopped a legitimate transaction, even if the issue was resolved quickly. The report highlights the critical need for banks to prioritize transparency, effective safeguards, and tailored communication strategies to ensure customer loyalty and satisfaction.

Pedro Barata, Chief Product Officer, Feedzai commented: “Our latest report highlights a major issue in terms of public awareness and education surrounding the distinctions between various types of financial crimes.  

“With a surge in digital banking services, a willingness among customers to switch banks, and an ongoing cost of living crisis, it is more important than ever for banks to foster strong relationships with their customers and establish trust. The potential of AI and other advanced technologies to enhance security measures and better protect customers from these threats has never been more clear.”

Methodology:
To gather insights into the prevalence of financial scams and attitudes toward fraud prevention and protection, Feedzai conducted an online survey in partnership with Censuswide, a leading market research company. The survey was conducted using an online access panel, with respondents sourced from Censuswide’s panel of participants. A total of 4,005 respondents participated in the survey, with 2,002 respondents from the UK and 2,003 respondents from the US. Of these respondents, 2,031 were female, and 1,974 were male.
