Best Practice Case Study - Using graph databases to improve your AI-based fraud detection system
Sophisticated financial criminals are constantly changing their tactics. AI-based detection systems, dependent on large training sets of historical data, maybe good at catching the low-value frauds but may struggle to pick up on the newest highest-risk approaches.
In that case, you need a system that gives your seasoned fraud professionals an easy and quick way to pull together a 360-degree view of the people, accounts, transactions and communications of suspicious actors, so you can react before they take too much.
This talk will explore how graph databases can help improve your AI-based detection systems and give you tools for intelligent investigation, transforming your ability to respond to fraud and sending a strong message to organised criminals to leave your bank alone.
Richard has been an independent data system designer for over thirty years, consulting to most major industries including FIS, banking, retail and manufacturing.
For the last ten years, he has concentrated on bringing the most advanced data technologies to market, with graph analytics as the natural evolution of that journey.

Industry Presentation - Breaking the Silos – Ensuring Holistic Financial Crimes Compliance
- Financial crimes compliance programmes are usually organised by discipline (e.g., AML/KYC, Sanctions, ABC). These risk areas can – and usually do – overlap, but organisational inertia often prevents effective coordination across teams.
- Risk management starts with risk identification. This requires an “all hands on deck” approach, across all financial disciplines – but also across the first-line business, who own the risk.
- Fostering a holistic approach to financial crimes compliance requires creative and tailored training and awareness among all stakeholders.
