SOLUTION

Wire Fraud

Stop fraudulent domestic and international wire transfers in real time to more effectively prevent fraud loss.

Enhance Monitoring. Prevent Loss.

With criminal schemes such as Business Email Compromise becoming a growing problem, institutions need enhanced monitoring to prevent serious loss.

Combining behavioral evidence with consortium insights, Verafin’s Wire Fraud solution provides financial institutions with powerful insight into both the payor and payees who do not bank at your institution. Our unique approach uses a consortium data set, representing 2400 financial institutions and over 575 million counterparties, to provide comprehensive insight into wire fraud risk — beyond the limitations of an individual institution and without sharing Personally Identifiable Information (PII).

"In a recent proof of concept with a Top 5 US bank Verafin delivered a 25% reduction in false positives and a 250% improvement in wire fraud detection by value."
