A New Report from Aite Group
Account Opening: Managing Risks and Building Relationships

Emerging compliance demands - as well as emerging fraud risks, cost imperatives, channel expansion and a push for customer maximization - drive investment in account opening technology.

Boston, MA, April 23, 2008 – A new report from Aite Group, LLC maps the current vendors offering risk management and marketing services to the financial services industry. It explores the key issues driving technology investment in this area, and profiles nine prominent vendors in this market.

In the banking and brokerage worlds, the account opening process provides a significant opportunity for financial institutions, on several levels. Because of this, investment in the account opening process continues to be a focus area for many institutions. Driven by a number of key factors - including emerging compliance demands, emerging fraud risks, cost imperatives, channel expansion and a drive for customer maximization - investments in technology and redesigned processes are vital to the health of the organization.

"Account opening marks the start of a new relationship between a customer and an institution," says Eva Weber, analyst with Aite Group and author of this report. "But the significance of the event extends beyond customer acquisition to the firm's risk management posture. Understanding the interaction between customer profitability and risk is an emerging science."

The report profiles nine vendors of account opening solutions: ChoicePoint, Early Warning Services, Equifax Inc., Experian, Fidelity National Information Services, ID Analytics, LexisNexis, RSA and TransUnion.
