The United States has finally joined the rest of the G-20 countries in upgrading to the EMV standard, though the path has certainly been a rocky one. At the same time that EMV gradually works its way into the fabric of U.S. payments, financial fraud continues to increase. Account takeover (ATO), card-not-present (CNP) fraud, and application fraud are all rapidly rising, fueled by reams of data breaches that have given criminals vast stores of consumer data. Lessons learned from countries that preceded the United States in upgrading to EMV indicate that as the U.S. migration progresses, dwindling counterfeit card opportunity will further magnify the increases in other forms of fraud.
This on-demand webinar, based on fresh research from Aite Group, explores the current state of the U.S. EMV migration, and the associated account takeover, CNP fraud, and application fraud trends. The research will help executives benchmark EMV’s progress and better understand the rapidly shifting fraud landscape.
2. 2
The transition to EMV card
types will drive major
changes in consumer
behavior, in infrastructure and
liablility, and in fraud
patterns.
How do experiences in other
countries help us prepare
for these shifts?

WHY EMV?
P R O B L E M S S O L V E D B Y E M V C A R D S A N D T E R M I N A L S
EMV cards (EMV stands for “Europay”, “MasterCard” and “Visa”) add a chip
that makes it virtually impossible to use a counterfeit card
Business who use EMV cards throughout their payment process will not be
liable for purchases on lost, stolen or counterfeit cards
The verification data embedded on the chip includes a continually changing
algorithm that makes it easier to detect or deny stolen cards
Like around one-third of the EMV deployments in the world, the U.S. is
primarily chip-and-signature, since lost/stolen fraud is relatively minor in the
U.S. market

CNP LESSONS FROM THE U.K.
“ S Q U E E Z I N G T H E B A L L O O N ”
From 2012 to 2015
counterfeit fraud
increased marginally, by
less than 7%
But at the same time
Card-Not-Present fraud
increased by over 60%

CNP LESSONS, CANADA & AUSTRALIA
“ S Q U E E Z I N G T H E B A L L O O N ”
From 2012 to 2014,
Canada saw a $91
million increase in CNP
fraud – more than 33%
Australia’s transition was
similar, with 60% more
CNP fraud and a $117M
increase in losses

TWO TYPES OF CARD -LESS FRAUD
A C C O U N T T A K E O V E R
Criminals fish for info, pretend to
be the cardholder, and then
request a replacement card
CARD-BASED ATO
Access a legitimate account
through hacking or fraud, and
transfer funds to another account
ONLINE BANKING ATO

ACCOUNT TAKEOVER IN THE U.K.
“ S Q U E E Z I N G T H E B A L L O O N ”

U.K. saw a £1M
decrease in card-based
ATO
While online-based
account takeover
increased £61M, or
250%
