Financing Departments

Fraud is a problem that costs more than $221 billion worldwide. The retail credit industry, which includes any business that offers credit to their customers, such as auto dealers, casinos and department stores, finds it increasingly vital to utilize credit fraud prevention as criminals continue to become more creative and efficient in their use of digital technology to commit fraud in an effort to secure an unfair or unlawful gain.

Optimize Regulatory Compliance when Issuing Credit

Because finance companies issue credit, they must comply with complex regulatory requirements to validate with whom they conduct such credit transactions by immediately verifying the authenticity of the ID being presented. Examples of regulations include the Fair Credit Act, the “Red Flag Rule”, mandates associated with the Free and Accurate Credit Trade Act, and the Customer Identification Program provisions of the Bank Secrecy Act. These combined legislative directives stipulate that issuers of credit must proactively involve themselves in the fight against identity theft by creating procedures, documented with step–by–step instructions, for how to validate ID documents of any individual applying for and being issued credit, and to maintain records.
