Project description

The project aims to implement the latest advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) to develop a novel Intelligent Insurance Fraud Detection System (IIFDS). This will identify high-risk behaviours and patterns enabling the early detection of potentially fraudulent activity to transform Domestic and General (D&G)’s approach to insurance fraud.

Key areas of focus include:

Building risk-scoring models based on internal and external data to flag high risk individuals and/or claims early – potentially refusing sales or charging higher premiums
Network analytics: developing models to tie together individual and device details with the aim of identifying duplicate accounts (currently being used to mask fraudulent activity)
Call transcript analytics- to identify fraud indicators from customer phone calls and build Generative AI (Gen-AI) models to flag these indicators from transcripts.
Creating a fraud detection ecosystem which expedites the work of operational teams.
The project will apply the latest AI techniques in a transformative way for D&G, innovative to the industry, by mitigating risk and fraud in insurance claims and improving operational efficiency.
