Publication number: 20150081378Abstract: Embodiments relate to a transactional risk daily limit (TRDL) update alarm. Customer data including historical transaction data and customer profile data is accessed, along with economic data from an external data source. A TRDL alarm analytics model is applied to the customer data and the economic data to predict a number of transactions in a specified time period that are expected to exceed a TRDL. The TRDL alarm analytics model takes into account a payment transaction pattern associated with the customer. A threshold value is compared to the number of transactions in the specified time period that are expected to exceed the TRDL. An increase in the TRDL is requested to be applied at least during the specified time period based on the number of transactions in the specified time period that are expected to exceed the TRDL being greater than the threshold value.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 16, 2014Publication date: March 19, 2015Applicant: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: JoAnn P. Brereton, Arun Hampapur, Hongfei Li, Robin Lougee, Buyue Qian

Publication number: 20150081491Abstract: Embodiments relate to intraday cash flow optimization. Transactions are accessed on a business-to-business integration network from a plurality of sources linked with payment delivery system data from a financial service system. The transactions are associated with two or more compartmentalized entities. The transactions are characterizes based on the payment delivery system data and an analysis of customer profile data. The transactions associated with two or more compartmentalized entities are linked as integrated information based on the characterizing of the transactions. An intraday receivables prediction engine and an intraday payables prediction engine are applied to the integrated information to produce an estimation of intraday cash flow. The estimation of intraday cash flow is monitored relative to intraday operations optimization conditions. An alert is generated based on determining that at least one of the intraday operations optimization conditions is met.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2013Publication date: March 19, 2015Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: JoAnn P.

Publication number: 20150081388Abstract: An aspect of customer selection processes includes classifying, by a computer processor, customers of an entity into groups based on commonly shared, predefined characteristics among the customers. For each of the groups: services rendered for corresponding customers are identified; for each of the services rendered, a risk relationship and a reward relationship between each of the corresponding customers and the service is determined; and for each of the services rendered, a score that defines a combination of the risk relationship and the reward relationship is calculated. For each of the services rendered by the entity, the corresponding score is applied to a candidate customer having a set of characteristics matching the characteristics of one of the groups, and the service is offered to the candidate customer as a function of the score.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2014Publication date: March 19, 2015Applicant: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: JoAnn P. Brereton, Arun Hampapur, Hongfei Li, Robin Lougee, Buyue Qian

Publication number: 20150081391Abstract: An aspect of product recommendation processes includes classifying customers into groups based on commonly shared, predefined characteristics and common financial transaction activities conducted. For each service offered, the product recommendation processes include estimating a cost of recommendation of the service; and estimating, for each of the customers in a group, a transaction risk of providing the service.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2013Publication date: March 19, 2015Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: JoAnn P.

Publication number: 20150081481Abstract: Embodiments relate to analytics-driven automated reconciliation of financial transactions. External information is correlated with a plurality of financial transaction reconciliation exceptions associated with a sequence of financial transactions over a period of time. A plurality of causal factors is identified from the external information associated with a pattern of the financial transaction reconciliation exceptions. A plurality of more recent financial transactions is monitored for the causal factors. An exception prediction alert is issued based on identifying the causal factors in the more recent financial transactions prior to detecting a new financial transaction reconciliation exception associated with the more recent financial transactions.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2013Publication date: March 19, 2015Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: JoAnn P. Brereton, Arun Hampapur, Hongfei Li, Robin Lougee, Buyue Qian

Publication number: 20150081543Abstract: Embodiments relate to analytics driven assessment of transactional risk daily limit (TRDL) exceptions. A transaction that includes a request to make a payment from an account associated with a customer is received and it is determined that processing the payment will result in exceeding a TRDL. Customer data including historical transaction data and customer profile data associated with the customer is accessed by a processor. Economic data from an external data source is accessed via a network from an external data source. A TRDL exception assessment model is applied, by the processor, to the transaction, the customer data, and the economic data to generate an approval recommendation for the request and a confidence level associated with the approval recommendation.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2013Publication date: March 19, 2015Applicant: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: JoAnn P. Brereton, Arun Hampapur, Hongfei Li, Robin Lougee, Buyue Qian

Publication number: 20130346996Abstract: A processor-implemented method, system and/or computer program product allocates multiple resources from multiple organizations. A series of requests for multiple resources from multiple organizations is received. The multiple resources are required to accomplish a specific task, and each of the multiple resources is assigned a probability of consumption. Probabilities of availability of the multiple resources are then determined and transmitted to the organizations.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 28, 2013Publication date: December 26, 2013Applicant: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: ROBERT R.
