Regula Study Highlights Growing Gap in Identity Fraud Metrics

  • Regula's study found that traditional fraud prevention KPIs like chargeback rates and cost of fraud are falling behind evolving threats.
  • Survey conducted among fraud professionals in the US, Germany, UAE, and Singapore revealed a shift towards proactive metrics such as compliance alignment and external intelligence collaboration.
  • Organizations are now measuring identity verification performance across four areas: financial impact, operational performance, detection accuracy, and customer experience.
  • Regula noted that IDV is becoming a system-level function supporting continuous identity risk management throughout the customer lifecycle.

Regula's findings reflect a broader industry shift towards proactive fraud prevention as traditional metrics fail to capture emerging risks. The transformation of IDV into a system-level function highlights the increasing complexity of managing identity risk across customer lifecycles, particularly in sectors like fintech and banking where financial exposure is high.
