The complexities of mobile money monitoring

In the last decade, the world has seen mobile money services becoming increasingly popular. Unique features like easy access to ready cash and fast and convenient payment methods have transformed mobile money into an empowering tool for users – mitigating economic gaps and providing financial security to millions across the globe. Mobile money services also pose the added advantage of being a source of revenue for countries, and it appears to be in their governments’ best interests to promote this innovative service. However, lack of close governance and regulation in this space can lead to numerous threats to a country’s security ecosystem, by way of promoting illicit trade activities, increasing terror funding and so on.

Monitor and regulate mobile money effectively

The Mobile Money Compliance and Metrics Component is an intelligent data platform that uses machine learning to ensure effective oversight of the mobile money market. The solution not only compiles information related to the mobile money transactions within a country, but also cross-verifies it with its registry to flag and alert authorities of suspicious transactions that could potentially amount to money laundering. The component is aligned with the international best practices in AML, making it a reliable tool for governments and regulatory authorities across the globe.
