Fraud / Transaction-Risk Score
A governed, reusable real-time risk score returned inside the auth window - published as a data product with contract, SLA, entitlements, and SR 26-2 monitoring.
A real-time Transaction Risk Score must return inside the ~100-200 ms auth window. Class imbalance makes raw accuracy misleading, and chargeback labels land weeks late.
Without a governed, reusable score product, fraud / auth / disputes / collections each rebuild bespoke models - no contract, SLA, entitlement, audit, or drift monitoring.
The solution, on the platform
- 1
Inputs: auth message, card/account context, device/channel CNP signals, behavioral store, consortium intel, delayed labels.
- 2
Features: velocity/aggregation + deviation + graph features in an online feature store (single-digit-ms reads, online/offline parity).
- 3
Model: tree-ensemble core + sequence/transformer for behavior; two-stage (light filter on every txn, heavy ensemble on flagged).
- 4
Serving: Kafka → Flink streaming; published as a data product with contract + SLA + row/column entitlements.
- 5
Governance: every score audited; model monitoring under SR 26-2 (PSI, FPR, recall). Reuse across auth / step-up / disputes / collections / credit-line is the value multiplier.
All four JPMC figures are reported / secondary coverage, not a primary Chase disclosure. Vendor figures are vendor-stated. Latency / availability / reuse targets are illustrative.
