Philippines’ Largest Bank Selects FICO Solutions to Help Combat Credit Card Fraud

Singapore—July 6, 2012—FICO (NYSE:FICO), the leading provider of analytics and decision management technology, today announced that BDO Unibank (PSE: BDO) of the Philippines has selected FICO^® Falcon^® Fraud Manager to help contain fraud cases in its credit card business. BDO, the Philippines’ largest bank in total resources, loans and deposits, aims to cut its fraud losses in half in the first year using FICO’s industry-leading fraud technology. BDO is also the first bank in the region to purchase the new FICO^® Merchant Monitoring Solution, which helps banks and acquirers (who process transactions for merchants) detect merchant non-compliance with payment association rules and potential transaction fraud.

Credit card usage in the Philippines has expanded significantly in recent years, accompanied by an increase in fraud. Criminals are known to target rapidly growing emerging markets where card usage is outpacing the implementation of effective controls. BDO selected FICO following a rigorous competitive review involving eight global providers. Of all the solutions BDO surveyed, only FICO's offered advanced neural networks capable of analyzing thousands of transactions against fraud profiles in a matter of milliseconds, as well as proven adaptive analytics - the ability to "learn" new fraud patterns as they emerge.

"We're committed to giving our customers the utmost protection every time they use their credit cards, whether it be via over-the-counter, mobile or online transactions. The FICO solution will assist us in doing that," said Rolando Tanchanco, BDO executive vice president for Consumer Lending Group. "And we believe the FICO Falcon Fraud Manager can best provide the needed solution to address one of our main business concerns - fraud detection."

"With the real possibility of a five percent increase per year in credit card losses, it's critical for Philippine banks to have the most advanced tools to thwart sophisticated fraud schemes," said Dan McConaghy, president, FICO Asia Pacific. "BDO is demonstrating a firm commitment to protecting its growing customer base from the threat of fraud."

FICO fraud solutions help banks around the world manage their enterprise fraud challenges. FICO^® Falcon^® Fraud Manager, the world’s leading card fraud management solution, protects more than two billion payment cards worldwide. FICO currently works with five banks in the Philippines to manage credit risk, grow their portfolios profitably and mitigate fraud risk.
