Many banks are now moving towards a more integrated approach to tackling these risks, taking a more holistic perspective to their processes. This streamlining of their business and technology architecture also support improved customer experience, better risk decision-making and cost efficiencies.
Taking a customer centric view of fraud by focusing on the customer journey will allow banks to predict where threats will appear along that journey, enabling them to develop controls around processes, rather than a traditional point controls approach to cybercrime.
