Fraud Risks in Real-Time Payments

“I think from a prevention perspective, a little friction at the beginning is not necessarily a bad thing.” Real-time payments have become the bedrock of modern life. Whether you’re splitting dinner or closing a corporate buyout, money now moves instantly—and irreversibly. But that convenience comes with a new tangle of risks: fraud, liability, and the shrinking window to react.In this episode of What The Fraud?, we sit down with Arthur Bedel—Global Director of Revenue at VGS, fintech advisor, and Co-founder of Connecting the Dots in Payments. He shares where real-time payments are headed, the biggest fraud trends he's seeing globally, and why a bit of friction might just be our best defense.We dive into real-world case studies, regional differences in adoption, and what financial institutions need to do now to stay ahead of the fraud curve.Sumsub's website: sumsub.com  Sumsub’s What The Fraud Summit: https://sumsub.link/caj Sumsub's LinkedIn: linkedin.com/sumsub Sumsub's Facebook: facebook.com/sumsub Sumsub's Instagram: facebook.com/sumsubcom Sumsub's YouTube Channel: youtube.com/@sumsubcom  Thomas Taraniuk on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/tomtaraniuk  Arthur Bedel on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/arthur-bedel  Hosted on Acast.
