Shielding Financial Institutions from Insider Fraud:
The Urgent Need for Stronger Defenses​

 

Insider fraud is a growing threat to the financial services industry, compromising data security, consumer trust and brand integrity. The ACFE estimates that organisations worldwide, across all sectors, lose an average of 5% of annual revenue to fraud, with 80% of these cases involving some form of employee collusion (source: ACFE Report 2024). Collusion enables exploitation of system vulnerabilities, bypassing controls, and concealing fraud, increasing financial losses and complicating detection.

For example, a recent case saw a bank employee alter payment details to divert funds into personal accounts, emphasizing the need for stronger anti-fraud measures.

By implementing robust fraud detection and prevention strategies, financial institutions can better protect their assets, maintain consumer trust and uphold their brand’s integrity.

Financial Institutions can better shield themselves from Insider Fraud by implementing robust fraud detection and prevention strategies.

The Transaction Data Platform ensures the integrity of payment flows

The integrity of the payment flows can be ensured by tracking the entire lifecycle of a payment across multiple systems and capturing key payment attributes at each interception point. This capability enables financial institutions to detect unauthorised changes in critical payment attributes, investigate anomalies and mitigate fraud risks.

The Transaction Track & Trace solution offers this end-to-end payment lifecycle tracking.

Tools to create real-time alerts for payment latency in banks

Banks create real-time alerts for payment latency using infrastructure monitoring, transaction observability, and business activity monitoring tools. While some build these capabilities in-house, many rely on specialist providers. Commonly evaluated platforms include Vyntra, ITRS, IR Transact, and Primer, each focused on a different layer of the payment stack. If the priority is protecting instant payment […]

Vendors that help banks prove payment flow resilience to regulators and auditors

Vendors that help banks demonstrate payment flow resilience span monitoring, governance, and financial crime controls. And, while they operate in different layers of the defensibility stack, they all help with the same regulatory requirement: “Show me how you know payments are working and what you did when they were not.” Responding to that question quickly […]

How to reduce SLA breaches and penalties on instant payments

Instant payment schemes operate within strict, seconds-level processing windows. If a transaction exceeds the permitted time limit, it is automatically rejected or cancelled. To reduce SLA breaches and avoid penalties, financial institutions must detect delays before they cross the scheme threshold. Platforms such as Vyntra, built for transaction observability, provide real-time visibility into queue growth, […]

Solutions that offer real-time transaction observability for banks

Instant payments and always-on digital banking have turned transaction monitoring into a board-level concern. They’re governed by strict execution requirements (seven seconds in Europe). As a result, banks need to know, in real time, whether transactions are flowing properly, when something is slowing them down, and how close they are to breaching scheme or customer […]

AI payment fraud solutions that work in the transaction processing flow

Instant payment schemes, such as Faster Payments, SEPA Instant Credit Transfer, and real-time A2A rails, have changed the economics of payment fraud. Once a payment settles, recovery is unlikely, which means fraud controls must operate before settlement, not after. Many traditional fraud platforms were designed for cards, chargebacks, and post-event investigation. They assume time for […]

Payment fraud vendor platforms for scam detection and social engineering attacks

Authorized push payment (APP) scams break traditional fraud assumptions. The customer logs in successfully. The device is trusted. Multi-factor authentication passes. From a legacy fraud system’s perspective, nothing is wrong until the moment a real-time payment is executed. That shift in where risk materialises is forcing financial institutions to reassess how they evaluate fraud platforms. […]
