  • Patent number: 12267461
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for dynamically prioritizing inbound interactions in a digital multi-channel contact center. The computer-implemented method includes for each inbound interaction via a digital channel: (i) operating an interaction analyzer module to extract one or more metadata parameters from the inbound interaction; (ii) operating a prioritization module to calculate a Digital Interaction Priority Score (DIPS) of the inbound interaction based on the one or more metadata parameters; and (iii) forwarding the DIPS to an interaction distribution module to route the inbound interaction to an agent based on the DIPS. The DIPS is periodically updated until the interaction is assigned to the agent.

  • Publication number: 20240428270
    Abstract: A system and method may detect rogue trading by detecting a subset of trades among a plurality of trades, where each trade in the subset does not meet a trade surveillance system threshold, and does meet a trade surveillance system threshold within a tolerance, and each trade falls within the same time period. A ratio of the subset of trades to the plurality of trades may be determined. If the ratio is above a threshold, it may be determined that the subset of trades corresponds to undesirable trading. Undesirable trading may be determined using an additional factor, based on a weighted average of, for each of a trade surveillance system threshold, the number of trades in the subset meeting the trade surveillance system threshold within a tolerance and not meeting a trade surveillance threshold, times a weight based on the position of the threshold in the trade surveillance system.
