What problem can Experian help your business with?
By focusing on fraud prevention and regulatory compliance, you can reduce losses and build trust with good customers. So how do you achieve both? It starts with moving away from a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, you need to employ the right type of protection at each stage of the customer journey.
Regulation
Conforming to ever-changing Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) guidelines isn’t always easy. That’s especially true when the demands of technology increase and departmental funds don’t. With the right help, however, you can provide due diligence and risk quantification without breaking your budget.

Old-fashioned password systems are no match for fraudsters intent on account takeover. And credit applications need to be thoroughly vetted using top-class validation and verification procedures to ensure that the ID being used isn’t stolen or fake. But how can you incorporate fool-proof identity checks into your digital channels without slowing down legitimate customers? It’s time to get onboard with biometric verification.

Identity checks and verification
Modern ID verification systems do more than protect you from the cost of fraud and a damaged reputation, they can also boost customer confidence in your security measures and improve their experience across all your channels. Passive, invisible checks help keep fraudsters at bay, while genuine customers enjoy a seamless, joined-up experience.

In business, you need to make sure you always have all the facts. Background checks let you dig into the past to find out more about a person or an asset, such as a vehicle. You can find out how much they’re worth and whether the information you’ve been given is true and complete. Whether you want to check up on a potential employee, settle an insurance claim or extend a line of credit, background checks make sure you’re both forewarned and forearmed.
