Fraud continues to be a top challenge for financial services organizations as we head into the new year, and today’s fraud prevention involves more than automation.

In this month’s BAI Executive Report, we examine where things stand with fraud protection and how it can be done more efficiently and effectively, including looking at the role of both humans and technology in fraud prevention strategies.
