Recommendation: R-BEH-001 shows moderate FP rate. Consider adding device reputation scoring layer to reduce false positives from legitimate new device usage.
Rules Engine Governance & Compliance
Rule Lifecycle Management:
- Version control: All rule changes tracked with audit trail
- Testing protocol: Staging validation before production deployment
- Performance monitoring: Real-time precision/recall tracking per rule
- Sunset policy: Rules with <70% precision reviewed quarterly for retirement
- Conflict detection: Automated overlap analysis with resolution workflow
Regulatory Alignment:
- BSP Circular 1112: Rule-based transaction monitoring requirements
- AMLC Guidelines: Documented rule logic for suspicious activity detection
- Data Privacy Act: Behavioral rules operate on anonymized/pseudonymized data
- Model Risk Management: Rules treated as model components with independent validation
- Audit readiness: All rule executions, thresholds, and overrides logged for 7 years
Professional Risk Disclosure: Rules engine outputs are probabilistic indicators requiring human analyst review before adverse customer action. Rule performance metrics reflect historical validation and may vary with portfolio composition and fraud landscape evolution. All rule deployments follow institutional Model Risk Management policies and regulatory guidance. Illustrative data shown for system design purposes; production metrics subject to change.
