Tamas Kadar, CEO and co-founder of SEON said: “It’s been an interesting year for the banking sector. Despite a few bumps in the road there’s clear evidence the industry is moving in the right direction. However, to ensure this momentum can be sustained, those working within traditional banks, as well as neobanks must be highly vigilant around the growing risks associated with fraud.
“If this doesn’t happen, institutions risk monetary and reputational damage because of fraud. This is an ever-present threat. 71% of financial institutions report a security breach from Business Email Compromise last year alone. Thankfully, as well as compiling an index of today’s fraud pain points, companies like SEON are also on hand to provide businesses in the banking and neo-banking sectors with new tools to fight back against the fraudsters.”
