The two companies will provide artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) products that monitor, detect and report fraudulent or suspicious activity in real-time.

The announcement comes shortly after Salv and Veriff launched a collaboration to strengthen the fight against financial crime.

Allison Maddock, chief product officer of CSI, welcomed the new partnership with Hawk AI.

“The proliferation of digital technologies—not just in financial services but across categories like e-commerce and digital currencies—has created more opportunities for bad actors to launder money and more risk for businesses to lose it”, Maddock stated.

“Rules and regulations are not necessarily enough to stop fraud and money laundering. To avoid human error and employees that spend hours manually monitoring these concerns, all organizations need to consider AI-backed fraud protections and AML support”, she added.

Impact of fraud worldwide

In the US, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) reported 2.4 million fraud cases in 2022, accounting for $8.8bn in losses. That shows an increase of over $2bn in losses from $6.1bn registered in 2021.
