SiNSYS Implements Fair Isaac´s Newest TRIAD Technology to Enhance Account Management Decisioning for European Card Issuers



    Fair Isaac Corporation (NYSE: FIC), the leading provider of
    analytics and decision management technology, today announced at its
    InterACT customer conference that European payment card processor
    SiNSYS has successfully integrated Fair Isaac´s newest TRIAD(TM)
    adaptive control technology with its processing platform. The account
    management solution will help European payment card issuers more
    effectively manage risk, build customer loyalty and grow credit and
    charge card portfolios.

    A major Dutch card issuer is among the first SiNSYS clients to
    migrate their payment card portfolios to Fair Isaac´s new TRIAD
    platform 8.3. The migration marks the first time a TRIAD 8 system has
    been utilized to help issuers not only manage credit cards, but also
    design and execute more profitable account-level strategies for charge
    card portfolios.

    "As many of our customers have expanded their business, their need
    for high-quality, secure and reliable account management solutions for
    safely managing risk and growth is more important than ever," said
    Nicola Cordone, Chief Executive Officer at SiNSYS. "Fair Isaac´s TRIAD
    system continues to lead the competition in being able to deliver
    accurate and timely results on large transaction volumes, and the
    newest version will add significant strength and capabilities to our
    payment card processing solutions."

    The new platform also offers family-level account management
    functionality, which enables issuers to consider the risk of other
    known financial relationships in the household and manage the risk and
    rewards among members in a more effective, coherent and efficient way.
    To deliver this advanced service, the TRIAD system has been integrated
    with the SiNSYS processing system (CSC´s CAMS II(TM)), which is
    designed to identify and configure family account structures and
    deploy advanced predictive modeling for analyzing risk across family
    relationships.

    The TRIAD system 8.3 also provides clients with increased
    flexibility in how they utilize the system to process key decision
    areas, including credit line management, authorizations, collections,
    reissue, marketing, and pricing. Additionally, the upgraded version
    offers improved performance in processing speed, which is particularly
    important to clients with large portfolios and multiple products.

    "Increasing payments performance is at or near the top of every
    issuer´s list of priorities," said Jerry Ferlisi, vice president of
    processor relationships at Fair Isaac. "The integration of TRIAD´s
    highly predictive and localised scoring models into the SiNSYS
    processing platform is a significant event for issuers across Europe."

    Fair Isaac´s TRIAD adaptive control system continues to be the
    most widely used solution for account management decisioning with more
    than 300 portfolio users in over 30 countries. Sixty-five percent of
    bankcards globally are processed on a Fair Isaac adaptive control
    system. The technology has been widely adopted across Europe, and is
    currently used to manage more than 140 million accounts in 17
    countries. The TRIAD system 8.3 is available to end-users and
    processors immediately.
