Although financial institutions have long expressed interest in collaborating with one another in order to combat fraud, compliance, competition, and logistical concerns have stalled even basic information sharing.  

This brief but in-depth discussion outlined the challenges and solutions to increased collaboration among consumer lenders, covering:

  • Existing practices for sharing information (such as “sneakernets”)  
  • Challenges including regulatory requirements, reputational and competitive concerns
  • Cyber Fraud threats that make collaboration more crucial than ever  
  • Regulatory changes meant to encourage sharing and why they haven’t succeeded  
  • Technology solutions to facilitate the sharing of fraudster profiles while protecting consumer data

“No single organization can stop synthetic identity fraud on its own. Fraudster tactics continually evolve to stay a step ahead of detection – and the most sophisticated fraudsters can operate at scale in organized crime rings, generating significant losses for the payments industry. It is imperative that payments industry stakeholders work together, share information and keep up with the threat.”
