3 Why Combine AML and Fraud Drivers Value What is creating demand for convergence Why is it so important for organizations to get it right? Regulatory expectations to look across the business and create FIU s are increasing Typologies used by Fraud and AML likely individuals are trending to be more in common Organizations are being forced to do more with less and reduce compliance costs Deeper understanding of your customers Lower existing and future costs Target the right alerts Convergence allows organizations to think more holistically about the customer and combine different elements of data Convergence not only help reduce costs of investigations but reduces the cost of managing technology Convergence helps investigators conduct more meaningful investigations Competitive pressures are forcing organizations to innovate.

5 What are the challenges of combing Fraud and AML? Difficulty scoping and developing procedures Do we have the right people? How do we begin? Experienced resources can be difficult to find, and may not be available when needed Analysis may have the technical skills but lack industry, business process, issue or other experience Lack of repeatable processes may cause analysts to re-invent the wheel Inefficient data collection process Are we getting the right data in an efficient and timely manner? Data acquisition is often time-consuming and can cause delays and multiple false starts Lack of data control causes difficulties in setting and delivering to expectations ERP configurations, niche applications and legacy systems complicate mapping and collection Inability to ascertain the quality and reliability of the data itself causes uncertainty Difficulty interpreting and filtering findings How do we truly combine scenarios and alerts? Convergence must have the insight to interpret results, refine analysis and reduce false positives Convergence requiring trending, forecast and predictive modeling require greater interpretative skills Reliance on ineffective or inappropriate analytic tools can limit insights and mask findings Unclear return of investment Did the data analytics program yield the expected benefits? Convergence requires clear objectives which increase control, generate insights, forecast or predict Overall analysis processes must be effectively managed Convergence must keep with the plan and resist getting lost in the details August 14, 2012 PwC 5
