Software Solutions For Stopping Bank Fraud & Money Laundering
A Global Problem With An Online Solution
Bank fraud and money laundering are serious problems that financial institutions have legal and moral responsibilities to help curtail. According to the American Banker’s Association, fraud against deposit accounts cost $1.74 billion in 2012. And that’s just in the United States. Government agencies also say that about 3.7 percent of the world’s GDP, or $1.6 trillion is laundered each year. Laundered money evades taxes and often supports illegal and destructive activity like international terrorism and the drug and sextrafficking trades.
Stopping Fraud, Staying In Compliance
Financial institutions have a strong monetary incentive to prevent bank fraud, as it impacts their bottom line and they also have certain legal responsibilities as well. With regard to money laundering, the Bank Secrecy Act places much of the responsibility for curtailing money laundering on banks and financial institutions. Strong BCS/AMA software is critical to stopping bank fraud and money laundering.
