Diversity and Inclusion in Fintech

Fighting payment fraud has never been more complex or more important.

This presentation, from subject matter experts at Insparx and Experian, lays out useful strategies for building out strong and effective fraud infrastructure from the very beginning.

Ten years ago, Spotify and Netflix extended their global streaming services to dozens of countries. It took multiple providers and large teams of experts.

Today, HBO, Disney+, and SkyTV are scaling twice as fast with teams a fraction of the size. How do they do it, and more importantly, how can you do the same?

In this presentation, a panel of merchants will share how ruthless prioritization, strong partnerships, and investments in analytics helped them jump from millions to hundreds of millions of customers in dozens of countries in less than a year.

Learning Objectives:

The viewer, upon listening to the webinar, will have a basic understanding of the importance of implementing the prevention plans outlined, and were recruiting a third-party consulting company to assist in setting these plans up can help. 

Merchants are always after the best solution for their fraud prevention needs, but it’s hard to know whether a new solution will actually be right in practical, ongoing terms. Enter POCs. A real-life try-out of the solution can give a clear indication of its performance. Right? Not always.

Our webinar will discuss 3 specific use cases that will help merchants understand the right way to conduct a POC for a fraud prevention platform.

In this webinar, we will address the following scenarios and how to best counter their negative impact on a POC:

1. The challenge of trusting the accuracy of the POC's end result when another system (i.e., your existing one) is in place and affects the results dramatically.
2. An existing fraud prevention system that guarantees transactions and is liable for them. The solution which is being vetted through the POC is not.
3. For a limited point in time, you can have professionals conducting the POC side by side with your system. While this approach will significantly improve overall performance, in reality, it will be impossible to replicate.
