  • Patent number: 9836510
    Abstract: Identity data for an applicant opening a bank account is provided to an ID confidence scoring system. The scoring system accesses a multi-source data management system, using queries that include a base component, a link component and a function component. Data records maintained by the multi-source data management system include header data having identity data elements, with the header data analyzed pursuant to the queries. Queries may also be provided to an entity resolution system having data records organized in data networks, each data network corresponding to a single entity. Query results are used to develop an ID confidence score for applicant identity data.
