This year, legal wagers are expected to push $35 billion — a 30% increase over last season’s estimates — according to the American Gaming Association.

Socure is helping gaming companies tackle this challenge. Click through below to see how we helped a leading online gaming company revolutionize its KYC process and strike the perfect balance between user experience and compliance.

Imagine a sector of the U.S. economy as large as the entire lodging and food services industry. Now imagine that this sector, instead of contributing to growth, actively drains resources and undermines public trust. This is the reality of financial crime in America today. Financial crime, including fraud and money laundering, significantly hinders U.S. economic growth and disproportionately impacts vulnerable communities, affecting millions of households. According to recent estimates, financial crime activity accounts for a staggering 3.1% of the U.S. GDP. Nasdaq CEO Adena Friedman recently highlighted the severity of this issue, stating that annual U.S. GDP growth could have been more than 0.5 percentage points higher if fraud losses alone were reintegrated into the economy. At the heart of this crisis lies the challenge of accurate digital identity verification. 🔐 As our lives and transactions increasingly move online, cybercriminals are exploiting weaknesses in our digital identity systems. The result? An unprecedented wave of fraud, identity theft, and money laundering hitting financial institutions and government agencies. Beyond economic damage, financial crime supports horrific criminal activities like human trafficking and terrorism. 👀 Here’s our take: Government, financial institutions, businesses, and law enforcement must come together to create a fraud prevention network to identify fraud trends, share best practices, and develop standardized identity verification protocols. Addressing financial crime through global cooperation, enhanced regulation, and advanced technologies is critical to unlocking economic potential, restoring trust in financial systems, and safeguarding the most affected populations. Failure to act perpetuates economic drag and societal harm on a large scale. 💪🏾 By strengthening our digital identity ecosystem to combat financial crime, we can create a more secure, resilient, and productive economy for everyone.
