A recent study highlights the alarming rise in financial fraud: 🔹 29% of US bank customers and 22% of credit card users fell victim to fraud in the past year. 🔹 Emerging threats like Quishing (QR code phishing) and high-value fraud in bank transfers and cryptocurrencies are challenging traditional detection methods. Yet, only 46% of bank customers and 40% of credit card users were engaged in fraud prevention efforts within the last 90 days. This gap in proactive protection is more than a missed opportunity—it’s a call to action. Financial institutions that prioritize real-time fraud prevention not only mitigate risks but also build lasting customer trust. At Data Sutram, we empower market leaders with: ✅ AI-powered analytics for real-time fraud detection. ✅ Advanced data science solutions to secure millions of transactions daily. ✅ The tools to stay ahead of emerging threats while fostering trust and loyalty.

Banks are better equipped to identify potential risks early, with cost-effective, technology-driven verification processes becoming the norm. However, balancing robust checks and respecting employee privacy remains a challenge. At Data Sutram, we enable financial institutions to strike this balance.

Responsible for over half of fraud cases in India, mule accounts pose a significant risk, often slipping through standard security checks due to sophisticated evasion tactics. Mule accounts utilize frequent, low-value transactions to blend in, employ identity layering and synthetic data to mask origins, and operate within complex networks that transfer funds across multiple accounts. Their behavioural inconsistencies, like location mismatches and recycled contact details, often go undetected in standard checks. Additionally, multichannel activity across platforms and banking systems complicates traceability further, challenging even the most advanced institutions. How DS Authenticate Solves This Data Sutram’s DS Authenticate tackles these complexities by validating customer information from 250+ sources—including digital footprints, phone intelligence, transaction histories, regulatory records, geospatial data, and behavioural indicators. This comprehensive approach allows us to catch mule accounts both during onboarding and within existing accounts, proactively strengthening financial defenses. Secure your onboarding process with intelligence that sees beyond traditional detection.

A big thank you to Sahamati for hosting #Samvaad2024, a landmark event driving conversations on Open Finance and the transformative potential of the Account Aggregator (AA) ecosystem. This year, the spotlight was on a critical challenge: fortifying India's financial sector against fraud amidst the rapid rise of digital transactions. Our Founder & CEO, Rajit Bhattacharya, joined a distinguished panel to share insights into tackling mule accounts, synthetic identity fraud, and money laundering. We also discussed how the AA ecosystem is reshaping fraud prevention. Key Insights from #SamvAAd2024: 1. Real-Time Data Access: AAs enable instant, secure access to verified financial data, helping identify mismatched transactions or synthetic identities early. For instance, discrepancies in declared income compared to bank statements can flag fraudulent loan applications. 2. Enhanced Risk Profiling: Combining AA data with advanced analytics allows for 360-degree customer risk assessments, detecting anomalies like synthetic identities across datasets. 3. Lifecycle Fraud Detection: Mapping real-time cross-account activity can trace and disrupt mule account networks, ensuring robust fraud prevention. 4. Proactive Compliance with EWS: The AA framework supports compliance with Early Warning System (EWS) mandates while reducing fraud risks through consent-based, transparent data sharing. 5. Building Trust: Integrating AA capabilities strengthens security and fosters collaboration between fintech, banks, and regulators, creating a resilient BFSI ecosystem. The AA ecosystem is more than combating fraud; it creates a safer, scalable, and inclusive financial landscape. 💡 Discover how we’re driving transformation in BFSI security at www.datasutram.com. #OpenFinance #FraudPrevention #AccountAggregator #DataSutram #CyberSecurity #BFSI #AIInFinance #Samvaad2024 #ThoughtLeadership #FintechInnovation

Digital payment fraud has surged worldwide, with businesses and financial institutions collectively losing over $20 billion each year to increasingly sophisticated tactics. As cyber threats evolve, they expose vulnerabilities not only in technology but also in compliance frameworks and risk management strategies. In a landscape where fraud is becoming harder to detect, the focus must shift from reactive measures to intelligence-led, proactive prevention. Here’s what we think can make the difference for organizations struggling with digital payments fraud. 1) Integrated Risk Scoring Models: Real-time risk assessment models, such as DSTrust Score, allow financial institutions to identify high-risk accounts based on a combination of behavioural data, transaction patterns, and external digital footprints. This integrated approach enables earlier fraud detection, protecting institutions and customers alike. 2) Strengthening Verification Protocols: Fraud prevention is most effective when threats are intercepted at the point of entry. With tools like DS Authenticate, institutions can streamline the KYC process, ensuring that fraudulent actors are detected before they enter the system. By leveraging data from multiple sources, this enhanced verification reduces the chances of mule accounts infiltrating the network. 3) Aligning with Evolving Compliance Standards: The recent RBI updates on fraud risk management underscore the need for advanced, compliance-focused solutions. By working in sync with regulatory guidelines, Data Sutram’s solutions not only meet but anticipate compliance needs, empowering institutions to adapt seamlessly to changing standards. 4) Fostering an Intelligence-Driven Culture: As fraudsters refine their methods, financial institutions must shift toward a culture that emphasizes data intelligence at every level. Collaboration between data science, risk management, and compliance teams is essential to create an agile response framework that keeps pace with emerging threats. Data Sutram’s role in this ecosystem is not just to provide tools but to foster partnerships with financial institutions that prioritize long-term security. These solutions represent the shift the industry needs—one where digital payments are safer, compliance is built-in, and customer trust is paramount.
