Many tier 1 banks, leading insurers and challenger fintechs trust Synectics’ award-winning services, which have prevented fraud losses surpassing five billion pounds.

Today, Synectics leads in using data and insight as a force for good.
Its solutions purposefully balance financial crime prevention with the fair treatment of customers. As a result, organisations can effectively combat fraud and its associated human cost, even as rapid digitalisation makes fraud challenges more complex.
