Extraordinary knowledge about fraud and risk management in B2C and B2B business. I am originally a banker. In 2000, I switched from branch banking to Europe's first Internet-only bank - which was just starting its lending business. One problem was quickly apparent: the first fraudsters had already discovered the bank. We stopped this fraud attack within a week. Within the next years we built fully automated decision processes in real time and one of the first credit factories. However, the most exciting topic remained fraud detection. From the bank, I moved into consulting for automated decision processes and much later into product management of a credit agency. My favorite topic, however, always remained fraud prevention and anti-money-laundering. Fraudsters and money launderer are creative and flexible: the ideal opponent for an exciting game. I have now been advising financial service providers and eCommerce companies on fraud prevention for over 20 years. Unfortunately, I keep finding that almost every new company makes the same mistakes - in fraud prevention, there are three ways to go: grow very slowly and carefully, buy expertise, or learn on pain. It's not a question of if fraudsters will come, just when. My biggest challenge so far was building a data pool for banks, which finally went online in 2015. Other projects have been the design of various online processes at credit banks, the Introduction of an international credit agency platform, writing a book... As a sideline, I studied psychology, Governance, Risk & Compliance and deal with personal development. So, if you have an issue with fraud or money laundering, let's talk about it, maybe I can help. And if you have new ideas on this topic, I'd be even happier to get to know you: the most important point in fraud prevention is exchange and cooperation.Best regardsDirk
