Fraudsters Love RTP and Will Feast on FedNow. Is Your Financial Institution Prepared?

Fraudsters Love RTP and Will Feast on FedNow. Is Your Financial Institution Prepared?

The FedNow service developed by the Federal Reserve is soon to launch.  With RTP and FedNow, your banking customers (and criminals) will be able to deposit and withdraw funds in seconds. This leaves the door wide open for fraudsters.

Real-time settlement reduces a bank’s ability to detect fraud before it’s too late.  Fraudsters know this, and bank losses are mounting.

But by utilizing advanced real-time AI tools, your financial institution can detect and prevent RTP and FedNow fraud as it’s happening.  Potentially saving our bank millions.

Treasury and Risk

“We can reasonably expect fraud to increase after [FedNow] goes live. Instantaneous payments do not give financial institutions any time to identify suspicious transactions.”

If bad actors are able to intercept a transaction and divert funds, by the time the parties involved notice the fraudulent activity, the company’s money might be impossible to recover.” – Treasury and Risk
