As financial crimes become more complex, payment firms are tackling threats driven by technological advancements, like AI-generated fraud and social media exploitation. In 2023, the most prevalent types of fraud included identity fraud and facility takeovers. The Financial Crime 360 State of the Industry Survey 2024, involving 150 participants from 32 countries, highlights the continued concern of fraud, particularly identity fraud, and the increasing investment in AI and machine learning for fraud prevention. These insights are crucial for payment firms navigating this dynamic and demanding environment. Members can read the full breakdown from TPA editor Benjamin David, Jane Jee Clarinda Woodford, Sally Felton, Andrew Churchill, Alison McDowell, Matt Clare, Dr Mark Goldspink in this month's #PaymentsIntelligence here: https://lnkd.in/ev3phnSV #insight #financialcrime #fraud #payments #financialservices

The payment operations sector faces challenges as card payment revenues shrink due to capped interchange fees. In the EU, interchange fees for debit cards are capped at 0.2% and for credit cards at 0.3%, significantly lower than the previous rates of 0.5-2.0% before the Interchange Fee Regulations of 2015. Card issuers must find ways to reduce their operational costs to maintain profitability. This could involve streamlining payment processes, automating various operations, and leveraging technology to enhance efficiency. However, implementing automation and advanced technologies often requires significant upfront investment. TPA members can read our reporter, George Iddenden's breakdown in this month's Fatemeh Nikayin, PhD, Thomas Müller and payabl. Igor Skachkov https://lnkd.in/ewNXiUUk

💡 The payment services providers (#PSPs) community is on the brink of significant regulatory changes due in October 2024, as the Payment Systems Regulator (PSR) enforces new rules under the authorised push payment (#APP) fraud reimbursement policy. This policy aims to combat the escalating issue of APP fraud, where victims are tricked into authorising payments to criminals. According to UK Finance, Britons lost approximately £459.7 million to APP fraud in 2023, highlighting the urgent need for robust protective measures. 🔗 TPA editor Benjamin David examines October 2024's APP fraud reimbursement policy changes and their impacts on payments firms here: https://lnkd.in/ehU4nqGm @
