Network Risk Signals

Overview

Network risk signals are indicators derived from analyzing connections among customers, devices, or accounts that reveal potential fraud or money laundering risks. These signals may include shared IP addresses, repeated device usage across accounts, or unusual fund transfers between linked entities. By analyzing networks, institutions can uncover fraud rings or layering activity that individual transaction checks may miss.
Regulators encourage the use of advanced analytics to monitor hidden relationships and prevent systemic risks. Banks, fintechs, and payment providers integrate network risk signals into transaction monitoring and case management systems to strengthen defenses. They are an essential component of a proactive, risk-based approach to compliance.
