MONTRÉAL, Oct. 19, 2018 /CNW
Telbec/ - CGI (TSX: GIB.A) (NYSE: GIB) is pleased to announce the
launch of CGI HotScan360—an enhanced version of its
industry-leading HotScan solution. The increasing sophistication of
financial crime, a sharper focus on money laundering by regulators,
and heightened security concerns across the banking industry are
driving the demand for more advanced anti-financial crime tools.
CGI HotScan360 meets this demand by delivering integrated,
intelligent and real time anti-money laundering, customer due
diligence and fraud detection capabilities.
In today's digital world, billions of financial transactions
take place each day and ensuring each is legitimate is an
overwhelming task. Until recently, banks that manage transactions
have relied on multiple solutions to cover different aspects of
protection and have been constrained by legacy batch processing.
However, as digitalization increases the volume and speed of
transactions, banks are looking for a single, end-to-end solution
that handles these transactions holistically and in real time.
Developed in close collaboration with major banks, CGI
HotScan360 addresses these challenges by providing an innovative,
high-performance technology platform with a real-time risk engine
for scanning and scoring thousands of transactions per second. The
engine uses the latest in machine learning, advanced analytics and
automation and is highly scalable to meet future transaction
volumes. In addition, CGI HotScan360 is a modular solution that
allows banks to integrate certain modules with other systems or
omit them, as necessary. The solution also complies with the latest
and upcoming regulations such as PSD2, GDPR and SEPA instant
payment requirements.
"Financial crime is increasingly sophisticated, and new
technologies enable criminals to replicate fraud across the globe
24/7," said CGI Vice-President Jan
Macek. "In addition, with real-time payments, banks no
longer have hours or days to analyze transactions, but must do so
instantaneously, within milliseconds. CGI HotScan360 meets the
demands of the digital age through real-time monitoring and
advanced data analysis of customer activities while reducing
operational costs and providing a global support network."
CGI is an industry leader in providing anti-financial crime
solutions and services, with 11,000 banking experts across 5
continents. Its industry-leading HotScan solution is currently
implemented in 40 countries and helps clients to settle
approximately USD5 trillion of
payments on an average day. CGI will be at Sibos in Sydney, Australia to discuss CGI
HotScan360 and our end-to-end services and solutions for banking.
