Fraudsters see application fraud as a low-risk, high-reward endeavor – it's relatively easy to pull off and can be extremely lucrative. With losses amounting to $5.3 billion in 2023 alone, financial institutions are taking action to improve their application fraud controls. But the wrong controls can also slow bank growth and applying rigid “yes” or “no” decision criteria can mean blocking potentially legitimate customers. Luckily, achieving this balance can be easy if you have the right tools in place. Read our three best practices for effective application fraud prevention: https://bit.ly/4ehmVAB
Is your bank or credit union part of a consortium? Whether you’re a big bank or a local credit union, 🏦 participating in a consortium means you don’t have to rely just on your own internal data 📊 to evaluate the risk of taking on a new customer or processing a transaction – you can inquire into a shared database with fraud data contributed by over 2,500 institutions to make an informed risk assessment. 🌐 Consortia are incredibly powerful for defending against fraud. At Early Warning®, our consortium, the National Shared Database℠ , has been around for over 30 years. It covers 65% of all demand deposit accounts (DDAs) in the U.S. and can provide responses for, on average, 94% of payment and deposit inquiries, helping financial institutions to prevent billions of dollars in fraud losses every year. 🔍 Learn more about Early Warning and how it works: https://lnkd.in/gcFcsCuN
