Abstract
Overview
Javelin' s 2008 Banking Identity Safety Scorecard ranks banks and credit unions
on their customer-facing identity fraud Prevention, Detection and
Resolution™ capabilities. Leveraging the nation' s most comprehensive
study on identity fraud, Javelin updates the Prevention, Detection and
Resolution™ criteria each year to show specific ways that individual
financial institutions (FIs) can increase customer safety and loyalty by
partnering with account holders to fight identity fraud criminals. Using a
combination of mystery-shopper (averaging 5.8 calls per institution) and Web
site research to score 25 leading U.S. providers against relevant Prevention,
Detection, and Resolution™ criteria, collectively this study represents
50% of the U.S. market in 2008 by dollar value of deposits, according to the
FDIC.
