Payment card fraud is a problem that will not go away. Fraudsters are becoming more sophisticated creating key challenges for all parties with an interest in fraud prevention.

How significant is the problem of card fraud in Western Europe? What is being done to tackle the problem? What will be the evolution of card fraud?

Payment Card Fraud in Western-Europe 2004 provides the answer.

Scope of Report:

Covers payment card fraud in five countries in Western Europe - France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK.

Includes data on fraud losses for 2002 and 2003 (except for the UK where the period covered is from1999 to 2003) and examines key fraud trends.

Examines fraud preventive measures introduced by card schemes, card issuers and other parties such as the Police.

Looks at the future direction of the various fraud types in each market for the period 2004 to 2008.

Highlights of Report:

Spain is among the countries with the lowest fraud ratio in Western Europe. Spain is expected to complete its EMV-compliant migration by 2005 but the country has recently announced that the migration programme will be completed in 2008. It is estimated that only around one per cent of cards on issue in the country are currently EMV-compliant.

France pioneered the chip and PIN concept in 1992 when all CB cards were converted into smart cards. As a result, France witnessed a significant fall in the level of fraud on cards issued in France for domestic transactions. France has, reportedly, seen its fraud level reduced by more than 50 per cent since the introduction of smart cards.

Barclays first introduced Falcon Fraud Manager in 1997 and has recently renewed its contract for an additional five years. Barclays reported that its fraudulent activity was reduced by 30 per cent in the year 2003, a result that was mainly attributed to the implementation of Falcon Fraud Manager.
