Welcome to <strong>Vol.2</strong> - issue 6<br />

We are enthusiastic to release the 6th <strong>Issue</strong> of the Payments & Cards Network<br />

eMagazine for 2016. Following our last issue, this month we focus on the way realtime<br />

data can be utilized to reduce friction and eliminate fraud in the Payments<br />

industry and further. In light of this, we present an Q&A session with Armen Najarian,<br />

CMO at ThreatMetrix, who talks about the digital transformation in the financial<br />

services industry.<br />

In the Startup Spotlight we introduce you to Risk Ident, a software provider offering<br />

anti-fraud solutions within the e-commerce, telecommunication and financial sector.<br />

Roberto Giorgio Valerio, CEO at Risk Ident, sheds light on his company’s innovative<br />

approach to tackle fraud, which goes beyond having advanced machine learning<br />

components.<br />

To provide a complete picture of the digital transformation in the financial service<br />

industry, Luke Reynolds, Director of Fraud at FeatureSpace, clarifies what machine<br />

learning is and how it can exactly be used to tackle online fraud.<br />

Carrying on we feature the Michel Splichal, MRC US Program Manager, who gives<br />

advice on how risk management departments can foster an excellent customer<br />

experience. And on top of this Jose Gonzales-Alonso, Head of European professional<br />

services for Payments solutions at NCR, explains the advantages of using Bayesian<br />

analytics to fight fraud more effectively.<br />
