September 2026 Quarterly Fraud Index: Mixed Signals, More ATO
Lower Losses Need Context
The latest Auriemma Roundtable Fraud Index shows how declining bank fraud losses highlight the importance of when fraud is caught and who ultimately bears the cost. Earlier intervention may be helping banks contain losses, while scams borne by consumers can also reduce what appears on banks’ books.
Fraud Pressure is Shifting
Rebounding card fraud loss rates and account takeover’s record share of net losses show that progress remains uneven. Understanding which threats are driving exposure—and how your results compare with peers—can help focus your next steps.
What’s in the September 2026 Fraud Index?
- Gross and net fraud losses per DDA
- Credit card fraud losses as a percent of sales
- ATO fraud prevalence
What’s included:
- Bank losses beyond the headline. Explore what changing loss levels say about prevention and who ultimately bears the cost.
