Insurance companies spend several days to weeks carefully assessing a claim, however, the insurance business is still affected by fraud. The most common issues are property damage, car insurance scams, renters, and pet issues. Carefully selected models may help to successfully detect fraud. Our client aimed at automatic identification of fraud activities and preventing fraud-related losses and damages before claims are paid, and before fraud activities could do any harm to their system. The client also wanted to decrease the time spent for claim consideration and payments to genuine customers.
Based on Artificial Intelligence and statistical techniques, our team built a robust fraud detection system.
As the first step, before the labeled data was gathered, the Avenga team leveraged an unsupervised clustering approach to identify suspicious groups of users. We gathered all the vital metrics that signal potentially suspicious clients, including ID checks, a PEP/Sanctions/Deceased Warning, Forwarding address link warning, Email/Mobile Risk, credit card scores, etc. In addition, feature engineering was applied which leveraged the domain knowledge in order to manually create new important features that could affect the fraudster’s identification.
At the later development stages, having collected the labeled dataset, we applied a supervised machine learning approach to make fraud-related predictions that helped to boost the accuracy of the fraud detection system. Neural networks were used that can learn suspicious patterns from samples and later detect them in new unseen cases.
Fraud detection analysis helped to minimize fraud, improve underwriting and enhance risk management.
