Compliance definitions LOA, CIP, FACTA, KYC — These acronyms seem endless, and navigating compliance can be both confusing and a painful drain on resources. How do you know the best approach for your institution? Should you look at regulations for Know Your Customer (KYC) or the Customer Identification Program (CIP)? What about the levels of assurance (LOAs) or the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA) Red Flags Rule? Does the USA PATRIOT Act affect your industry? The myriad guidelines, rules and mandates surrounding fraud compliance are changing the way organizations do business. Let’s start with some brief definitions. CIP/KYC The Customer Identification Program requires banks to form a reasonable belief that they know the true identity of each customer. The CIP must include procedures that specify the identifying information that will be obtained from each customer, along with reasonable and practical risk-based procedures for verifying each customer’s identity. The Know Your Customer provision is a financial regulatory rule mandated by the Bank Secrecy Act and the USA PATRIOT Act. These guidelines focus on prevention of money laundering and the use of financial institutions to finance terrorist activities. This process has three stages: the CIP, customer due diligence (CDD) and enhanced due diligence (EDD). The last two stages address customer risk from an anti–money laundering perspective. LOA/FACTA (Red Flags Rule) Levels of assurance regarding identity focus on the extent to which electronic authentication may be used to verify that the individual identified in the input data truly is the same person engaging in the electronic transaction. This can be a daunting task — even the National Institute of Standards and Technology acknowledges that electronic authentication of individual people is a technical challenge when performed remotely over an open network. To choose the level of assurance that works within your company structure, you must determine what is needed to maintain the internal compliance and risk thresholds for each business requirement. LOAs are based on two categories: trustworthiness of the identity-proofing process and trustworthiness of the credential-management function (which includes technology and implementation/management). There are four LOA levels: Minimal Assurance Moderate Assurance Substantial Assurance High Assurance The FACTA Red Flags Rule requires institutions to establish a program that identifies ecommerce “red flags.” This program should consist of a pattern, practice or specific activity that indicates the possible existence of identity theft applicable to account-opening activities, existing account maintenance and new activity on accounts that have been inactive for two years or more. Don’t be discouraged In this world of compliance regulations that read like alphabet soup, we understand the challenges of meeting regulations while providing a frictionless customer experience. When an organization strikes the perfect balance between compliance and customer service, it has a competitive advantage that can lead to additional revenue opportunities (e.g., profitably acquiring new customers, detecting fraud and reducing charge-offs, minimizing operational costs, and improving operational efficiencies). To achieve this, businesses need cost-effective, flexible tools that allow them to meet current and future guidelines, manage risk and ultimately authenticate as many true customers as possible — all while segmenting out only the real fraudsters and noncompliant identities. You can be assured that new regulations will come, existing regulations will be redefined and communications on how to comply will be difficult to interpret.

A recent Experian survey shows a growing concern over identity theft and tax fraud. 42% of consumers are concerned that someone could access their personal data through their tax return, compared with 35% in 2014 and 38% in 2015 28% of consumers have been a victim or know someone who has been a victim of tax fraud Tax season is a busy time of year for identity thieves. While consumers should take steps to protect themselves, businesses also need to employ ID theft protection solutions in order to safeguard consumer information. >> Identify and prevent multiple types of fraud

Over the next several years, the large number of home equity lines of credit (also known as HELOCs) originated during the boom period of 2005 to 2008, will begin approaching their end of draw periods. Upon entering the repayment period, these 10-year interest-only loans will become amortized to cover both principal and interest, resulting in payment shock for many borrowers. HELOCs representing $265 billion will reach their end of draw between 2015 and 2018. Now is the time for lenders to be proactive and manage this risk effectively. Lenders with HELOC portfolios aren’t the only ones affected by HELOC end of draw. Non-HELOC lenders also are at risk when consumers are faced with payment shock. Experian analysis shows that it is an issue of consumer liquidity — consumers who reach HELOC end of draw are more likely to become delinquent not only on their HELOC, but on other types of debt as well. If consumers were 90 days past due on their HELOC at end of draw, there was a 112 percent, 48.5 percent and 24 percent increase in delinquency on their mortgage, auto and bankcard trade, respectively. With advanced data and analytics, lenders can be proactive in managing the risk associated with HELOC end of draw. Whether your customer has a HELOC with you or with another lender or is a new prospect, having the key data elements to obtain a full view of that consumer’s risk is vital in mitigating HELOC end-of-draw risk. Lenders should consider partnering with companies that can help them develop and deploy HELOC risk strategies in the near future. It is essential that lenders proactively plan and are well-positioned to protect their businesses from HELOC end-of-draw risk. Experian HELOC end of draw study
