KUALA LUMPUR, 28 May 2024 – National fraud bureau, CTOS IDGuard, has released latest statistics showing that 44% of all flagged credit applications from member banks are attributed to syndicates and fraud rings.

Fraud Types and Reasons identified by CTOS IDGuard

The data released is captured from 9.44 million applications over the past 45 months, with a total of RM519 million in potentially fraudulent applications being flagged by the system to alert banking consortium members since September 2020. This is a 62% increase compared to the RM319 million from the 36-month result published nine months ago.

CTOS IDGuard is part of CTOS’ suite of fraud and identification services which leverage on CTOS’ unique and extensive database, such as CTOS eKYC, CTOS Multi-face ID and CTOS Digital Footprint. To date, CTOS IDGuard covers over 65% percent of Malaysia’s banking assets.

“Over the past year, we have been using machine learning to increase the efficiency of the CTOS IDGuard Fraud Bureau. The latest figures have shown that this has improved detection rates by over 6% and is likely to be an important tool in the fight against known fraudsters and syndicates,” stated CTOS Digital Group CEO, Erick Hamburger. “These latest improvements are vital for the sector and our economy as digital finance continues to grow.”

GBG, the provider of CTOS IDGuard’s fraud and financial crime prevention engine, who have worked hand-in-hand with CTOS since IDGuard’s inception, also concurred.

“Criminal networks continue to become more organized and sophisticated, making it challenging for financial institutions to detect fraudulent activities,” added Carol Chris, General Manager, APAC at GBG. “Together with CTOS, we are dedicated to safeguarding member banks by giving them data intelligence to make the best decisions about their customers, when it matters most.”
