The MuleHunter platform, developed by the RBI Innovation Hub, is set to be adopted by at least 15 more banks in the upcoming weeks, a senior official revealed on Friday. This initiative aims to bolster efforts to identify fraudulent accounts used for illicit transactions.
Currently, institutions like Canara Bank, Punjab National Bank, Bank of India, and others have integrated this AI-driven tool. It has shown high efficiency, with a 90% positive alert rate, significantly higher than other platforms. This success is expected to enhance fraud detection across the banking sector.
Although still in its infancy, MuleHunter has already recognized 90 patterns associated with fraudulent activities. As the system continues to evolve, it promises to strengthen law enforcement measures against financial crimes, especially as new technological challenges, like quantum computing, emerge.
