Financial services companies need a reliable, secure, and flexible platform in order to build toward the future. Red Hat has the expertise to help you modernize so that you can meet customer demands while reducing costs and risk.

Developer Experience has become one of the biggest success drivers for large-scale distributed platforms. Randeep Khaund and Eddy Krumholz from Deloitte recognized this pattern early on and decided to invest in this area many years ago. This session will explore how Deloitte approaches developer experience, leveraging Red Hat® Developer Hub - as well as a collaborative approach for application modernization.
 
You will also hear about real-world implementations in the financial services industry and how they were used to scale platform usability and application modernization in a highly regulated environment.

Building developer experience, collaboration, and self-service IDPs at an enterprise level

The financial fraud threat landscape is vast and constantly evolving, with new attack methods continuously testing the limits of financial institution protection systems. Current AI and ML models, which primarily rely on historical or internal data, have significant weaknesses. They often fail to keep up with the innovative tactics of fraudsters, leaving institutions vulnerable.

To counteract this, financial institutions can leverage synthetic data to enhance their defenses and better understand and respond to evolving fraud and money laundering schemes. Synthetic data helps simulate a wider range of scenarios, providing insights that internal data alone cannot offer. Consistent communication and intelligence data sharing between institutions are crucial for preventing or limiting the impact of financial fraud. Such collaboration enables institutions to stay informed about emerging threats and adapt their defenses accordingly.

Investing wisely in AI systems is essential. Financial institutions must allocate their budgets and resources to develop the most effective AI systems for fraud detection and protection, both now and in the future. This includes embracing synthetic data tools and fostering cross-industry cooperation. As the volume and cost of financial crime threats rise, banks and other financial services must move beyond reliance on internal structures. Instead, they should adopt the latest technology and collaborate more openly to detect and deter attacks.

AI and Synthetic Data: Fighting Financial Fraud and Protecting Customers

Fraudsters are exploiting the vulnerabilities of increasingly interconnected economies, leaving banks facing damaged customer relationships, intense regulatory scrutiny, and heightened reputational risk. 

Near-instant payment settlement leaves little time for traditional fraud detection procedures, adding to a costly and growing challenge. While human analysts are grappling with a complex payments landscape, suspicious activities are staying under the radar of legacy rules-based systems. Artificial intelligence is becoming paramount to improving detection of fraudulent transactions, yet low-quality data is hampering model performance. 

In a bid to improve the accuracy of their AI models, innovative banks are turning to secure intelligence sharing on fraudulent behaviours with external partners. Federated learning is capable of preserving customer privacy while enabling competing banks to share intelligence on bad actors, bolster machine learning models, and reduce operational costs. 

Hosted by The Banker in partnership with Red Hat, this webinar convened leading technology and banking executives leveraging AI to fight financial crime. Chaired by Elizabeth Lumley, Deputy Editor of The Banker, our panel explored use cases for automation in fraud detection, while spotlighting advantages of federated learning for the payments industry and beyond.

Combatting Payment Fraud with AI: A Webinar with The Banker

As financial institutions become more sophisticated in their use of Generative AI and move from experiments to production-grade enterprise deployments, they face several challenges including:

- A rapidly changing landscape of small to large LLMs including commercial and open-source LLMs utilizing RAG applications
- Data gravity, regulations, and security force firms to target multiple deployment environments including on-prem, private, and public cloud
- Others: Lack of accuracy, data response hallucinations, high latency, low scalability, and high costs
To seamlessly produce and deploy, they need to have a flexible and scalable end-to-end approach. Red Hat and 

NVIDIA work together to enable an end-to-end solution built on OpenShift AI and NVIDIA AI Enterprise, including NIM, that enables enterprises to maximize efficiency and performance and maximize their AI investment.
