Cambridge, UK – Featurespace, the leading provider of enterprise financial crime prevention software, was announced as a winner of Computing’s AI & Machine Learning Awards for 2022. One of seven finalists for the “Best Use of Predictive/Prescriptive Analytics” category, Featurespace’s ARIC™ Risk Hub was chosen as the winner for its outstanding use of AI and machine learning to fight fraud and financial crime.
This year’s awards, judged by a panel of nine, took into account three main criteria for each company: innovation, relevance, and success. Judges noted ARIC™ Risk Hub’s focus on time series-based data to improve fraud detection as a notable differentiator when compared to traditional rules-based approaches to financial crime prevention. Furthermore, Featurespace was commended for its focus on fighting emerging attacks, such as automatic push payment (APP) fraud, chargeback fraud, and card not present (CNP) fraud.
“Financial institutions across the globe are dealing with a more diverse set of fraud and financial crime attacks than ever before,” said Dave Excell, Founder of Featurespace. By powering the ARIC™ Risk Hub with advanced AI and machine learning, we are proud to equip our customers and partners with the tools to move from traditional rules-based crime prevention to a sophisticated, predictive, and real-time approach.”
