Disrupting Financial Crimes

Fighting financial crime has never been more complex. The convergence of technology with unprecedented amounts of data presents both opportunities and challenges. Recent updates included in the 2022 Federal Budget mean that government bodies and the private sector will have to work both smarter and faster to fight global financial crime that is wide-ranging, from tax evasion and fraud against government programs to money laundering, market misconduct, bribery and corruption.

Underreporting of business income and sales have been age-old problems for tax agencies around the world, and the digital economy increasingly exacerbates the issue by enabling complicated transactions and blurring the lines between the physical and digital worlds. SAS and IVIX have partnered together to address these compliance challenges head on, setting a bold goal of creating unprecedented economic transparency across the global economy. Leveraging cloud computing, advanced algorithms, and public data on the web, we shine a light on the shadow economy by providing tax agencies insight into business activity across various industry sectors.
