Statement of Applicability: This Financial Institution Letter (FIL) applies to all 多宝游戏下载-supervised financial institutions and 多宝游戏下载-insured financial institutions.
Highlights:
- The 多宝游戏下载鈥檚 Tech Lab, FDITECH, and FinCEN are launching a Tech Sprint, challenging participants to identify a novel approach to develop solutions for financial institutions, particularly community banks, and regulators to help measure the effectiveness of digital identity proofing of individuals opening a new account in a remote banking environment.
- Digital identity proofing is a foundational element to enable digital financial services to function properly. This element is challenged by the proliferation of compromised personally identifiable information (PII), the increasing use of synthetic identities, and the presence of multiple, varied approaches for identity proofing.
- In an effort to increase efficiency and account security; reduce fraud and other forms of identity-related crime, money laundering and terrorist financing; and foster customer confidence in the digital banking environment, 多宝游戏下载 and FinCEN seek solutions to measure the effectiveness of digital identity proofing for greater reliance in assessment and calibration of risk, by having Tech Sprint participants answer the question:
- In the coming weeks, 多宝游戏下载 and FinCEN will open registration for this Tech Sprint. Interested individuals will have approximately two weeks to submit applications. The Tech Sprint will encompass a review of applications, grouping of individuals into teams that will work together over the course of approximately three weeks to develop solutions to this challenge question, and invitations to participate in a virtual 鈥淒emo Day鈥 of short team presentations to a panel of experts for evaluation
- At the conclusion of the Tech Sprint, the 多宝游戏下载 will publish all team presentations and recognize teams based upon several criteria detailed in the forthcoming prize notice. Neither the 多宝游戏下载 nor FinCEN are offering monetary prizes associated with the Tech Sprint.
