LexisNexis had several instances in the past, when their solutions took their clients businesses to next level by providing insightful cues. In one such case, SAFE Federal Credit Union, a financial cooperative, was facing numerous fraud attempts at its credit union that had put the firm under scanner of high risk. Moreover, it was becoming constantly difficult for the union to comply with evolving industry standards and government regulations there by pushing them to adopt robust ERM solutions. It was after the SAFE switched to LexisNexis’s InstantID, they were able to receive real-time identity verification insights that led for quicker, more informed decisions. “Embracing stronger anti-fraud practices, our software deployment had resulted in avoidance of 20-30 fraudulent loans within first eight months. The increased productivity and reduced data entry errors gave the client, results beyond expectations,” emphasizes Kelsey.

Moving ahead, the company wishes to remain dedicated in providing their clients with the highest level of pragmatic solutions.“With only 23 percent of officials describing their organization’s ERM as mature, we sense a great amount of zeal in covering this wide gap through our competent solutions. For the future we plan on exploring the emerging paths around ERM,” Concludes Kelsey.
