Episode notes
Shared Holistic Customer View Is Essential
- AML and fraud teams must move from siloed work to a shared, holistic customer view.
- Shared dynamic signals and consortium data reveal patterns static KYC and transaction-only monitoring miss.
Enrich Monitoring With Behavioral Signals
- Enrich monitoring with session and behavioral signals like IP and location changes to detect anomalies pre-transaction.
- Use machine learning to surface patterns that static rules miss and score risk before funds move.
Example: Location Switch Triggers Pre-Transaction Alert
- Nauman illustrated a user making transactions from Amsterdam then Pakistan to show how session signals reveal anomalies.
- He explained that session changes can trigger alerts before any suspicious transaction occurs.
