Abstract: Transfers of money into a recipient account are analyzed for risk of fraud by using a fraud monitoring system to analyze characteristics of the recipient account. The recipient account characteristics are stored in a central database, which has account data (for recipient accounts) contributed from a plurality of financial institutions that maintain such accounts. When a transfer is made or attempted, the stored characteristics of the recipient account are analyzed and a risk score is assigned to the transfer based on the recipient account. If the risk score indicates a suspicious or fraudulent transaction, an alert is provided. In an alternative embodiment, the risk analysis may be supplemented by analysis of transaction data association with the transfer.

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.
