Last year, well over half of all financial institutions lost more than $500,000 to fraud. However, for the credit union industry, it was even worse.<\/p>\n
According to Security Magazine, fraud rates at credit unions increased by a staggering 70%. That\u2019s a near doubling in the instances of fraud over the course of just a year.<\/p>\n
Simply put, criminals are now specifically targeting credit unions, and, as a result, fraud rates (and costs) have gone parabolic.<\/p>\n
Today, for every $1 in fraud, financial institutions are incurring an average of $4.36 in resolution costs. This is putting an enormous strain on credit unions, both financially and reputationally.<\/p>\n
But while there seems to be no stopping it (or even slowing its growth) there are tools available to credit unions designed specifically to help mitigate, and potentially eliminate transactional fraud.<\/p>\n
In a moment, we\u2019ll reveal why so many credit unions haven\u2019t yet incorporated these tools, and we\u2019ll show you the best-in-class artificial intelligence solution that\u2019s already helped reduce fraud costs at credit unions by over $200 million.<\/p>\n

Yet only 27% of credit union executives invested in modern fraud management and mitigation systems last year, down from 57% in 2021.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, the top concern of credit union executives has nothing to do with fraud. It\u2019s rising interest rates. While this is a legitimate organizational concern, it\u2019s nothing that can be controlled by the organization, and it\u2019s not what\u2019s most concerning to members.<\/p>\n With 74% of consumers citing proper fraud protection among their top considerations when opening an account (or keeping one), the number one concern for CU executives, one they can control, should be member loyalty, and addressing it with modern fraud protections.<\/p>\n It\u2019s why you should immediately consider incorporating RembrandtAi\u00ae.<\/p>\n RembrandtAi<\/a>\u00ae is an all-encompassing, real-time fraud detection and prevention solution for all transactional banking.
