About Global Trust Bank

Global Trust Bank is a leading international financial institution with $450 billion in assets, serving 28 million customers across 42 countries. The bank processes over 50 million transactions daily across digital, mobile, ATM, and branch channels. As fraud became increasingly sophisticated with criminals using AI and advanced techniques, the bank faced mounting losses and frustrated customers from false positive alerts. Traditional rule-based fraud detection systems could not keep pace with evolving threats, creating an urgent need for AI-powered fraud prevention.

The Challenge

Sophisticated Fraud Schemes
Criminals using AI and advanced techniques to evade traditional rule-based systems
⚠️ $56M in annual fraud losses
High False Positive Rates
Legacy systems flagging legitimate transactions, frustrating customers and overwhelming teams

Real-Time Detection Gap
Batch processing meant fraud was often detected hours or days after the damage
⚠️ 18-hour average detection time
Cross-Channel Blind Spots
Fraudsters exploiting gaps between online, mobile, ATM, and branch channels
⚠️ 67% of fraud crossed channels

What the Team Says

“Ademero's AI transformed our fraud prevention from reactive to predictive. We're stopping fraud we never would have detected before, and our customers notice the difference - fewer false declines, faster transactions, and complete peace of mind.”
Sarah Chen
Chief Risk Officer
“The explainable AI feature is a game-changer for our investigators. They can see exactly why the system flagged a transaction, making their work more efficient and helping us meet regulatory requirements for model transparency.”
Michael Rodriguez
VP, Fraud Operations
“We went from catching fraud after the fact to preventing it in real-time. The cross-channel intelligence finds patterns that would be impossible for humans to spot across millions of daily transactions.”
Jennifer Park
Director of Digital Banking Security
