SuperChoice has announced that they will use Alacer Group’s Velocity FinCrime Solutions Suite to enhance transaction monitoring and defence against fraudulent digital transaction activities.
With the use of technology and digital transactions within the superannuation ecosystem increasing, the risk of superannuation fraud also increases. As such, financial institutions are required to monitor, investigate, and report transactions of any suspicious nature to regulatory authorities.
This growing risk makes it crucial for every stakeholder to play their part to ensure systems are shielded against fraudulent threats.
“The evolution of digital transactions, and the sheer volume being made in near real-time, has meant the detection and prevention of fraud as close to the transaction time as possible is crucial,” SuperChoice’s Chief Product Officer Andrew Callus said.
“We partnered with proven experts in this space to give a greater level of fraud detection for our clients.”
SuperChoice, which has provided a safe platform for handling superannuation contributions and STP reporting for many of Australia’s largest Super funds, sees this decision as a proactive move to handle the changing environment.
