Enabling A Rational Strategy for "De-risking" Merchant Portfolios and Meeting Regulatory Compliance
Palo Alto, CA. (PRWEB) February 10, 2015 -- IdentityMind Global™, provider of risk management solutions for eCommerce, announced today the availability of version 1.18 of its flagship Anti-Fraud and Risk Management platform. This version greatly enhances the platform’s capabilities for financial institutions, commercial lenders, acquiring banks, and payment service providers (PSPs) in managing the risk of banking merchants, particularly in high-risk markets.
“Due to aggressive interpretation of regulatory guidelines following Operation Choke Point, financial institutions have been ‘de-risking’ their portfolio by refusing or terminating banking services to Money Service Businesses (MSBs), payday lenders, and other high-risk businesses”, said Mr. Garrett Gafke, IdentityMind Global’s CEO and President. “Strengthening the underwriting and monitoring capabilities used to evaluate these high-risk merchants will enable financial institutions to effectively deal with the pressure from internal and external regulatory guidance.”
Highlights of Version 1.18:
- Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) on merchants and owners to facilitate compliance for beneficial ownership.
- Complete workflow support for underwriting tasks with case management and document record keeping
- Discriminate policies for underwriting and risk monitoring based on merchant risk profiles
Version 1.18 also includes several enhancements to other Risk Management services:
- Expands the IdentityMind third party ecosystem to 16 partners, with Merchant TIN verification through a partnership with TinCHECK™.
- Enhanced Know Your Customer (KYC) capabilities with additional rule set designed for account fraud prevention.
- Enhanced workflow for faster handling of alerts.

This version of the platform is immediately available to clients worldwide. For more information about the features in this release, or the overall IdentityMind Global platform, please contact: [email protected] or [email protected].
