| “Each year fraudsters rob us all of around £14 billion of hard-earned income. This money could fund essential services for those who need them most; support people in their retirement – and expand our economy through investment.” |

National Fraud Strategy, March 2009 |
From initial contact with a customer, public sector organisations are at risk from identity fraud, manipulation of personal, family, address or financial details. Later in the relationship there is further risk from a change in an individual’s personal circumstances that affects their eligibility for services.
Experian provides a range of resources from preventing fraud at the point when service eligibility is being assessed through to detection and investigation once a fraud is suspected. These solutions are supported by Experian's Specified Anti-Fraud Organisation (SAFO) status, allowing us to help public sector organisations tackle fraud head on.
Experian’s identity management solutions have been designed to meet the specific identity authentication needs of public sector organisations, enabling government to authenticate a citizen’s identity in real-time, irrespective of the channel.
