Tackling business & fraud risks by detecting anomalies & continuous transaction monitoring

Schedule a demo

A PwC India Product 

Anomaly Detection & Transaction Monitoring is a major business problem that requires novel ways for resolution, as patterns keep changing and business rules or supervised models become obsolete quickly. Identifying anomalies through unsupervised ML methods is the key to solving this predicament.

Anomaly Detection Platform is a digital platform that helps clients in detecting and preventing anomalies and continuous transaction monitoring, including uncovering unknown patterns and risks using unsupervised ML methods.

Deployable on cloud or on-premise, the platform is industry agnostic and equipped with a customisable data ingestor, powerful ML engine, natural-language generation (NLG), UI-based business rules engine (BRE), and persona-specific dashboards/workflows, and can be easily configured for multiple use cases.

Challenges

Data barriers

Data barriers

  • Data integration challenges due to multiple, siloed sources with different data types and data quality issues, leading to increase in complexity
  • Manual checking not able to keep up with rising transaction volumes and makes only sample testing possible, leading to leakages of anomalies
Manual control mechanism

Manual control mechanism

  • Turnaround time (TAT) breaches/closure in delays due to manual tracking and lack of audit trails and holistic visibility
  • High full-time equivalent (FTE) involvement and costs due to manual processes with more time being spent on identifying anomalies and less on resolving them
Obsolete techniques

Obsolete techniques

  • Anomaly patterns keep changing, making static business rules/supervised models obsolete in a short span of time
  • Key anomalies not being tagged as validation done only on known risks/patterns with dated predefined rules
Rising compliance cost

Rising compliance cost

  • Lack of flexibility in existing monitoring systems to keep pace with the increasing regulatory focus on governance and controls
  • Increased compliance cost as audit observations lead to key stakeholder involvement for post-facto remediation
