Global Enterprise Fraud Management Market 2014-2018
M2 - Tue Feb 18, 3:38AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/dg2vx2/global_enterprise) has announced the addition of the "Global Enterprise Fraud Management Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. The Global Enterprise Fraud Management market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.93 percent over the period 2013-2018. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: An enterprise fraud management system supports the growth of a company and helps it gain competitive advantage by streamlining business processes and improving operational efficiency. An enterprise fraud management system is one of the most valuable aspects for SMEs as it identifies potential risk areas and detects fraud. Earlier, SMEs had limited options when adopting a system that would ensure optimal business performance. This was because they did not require, or could not afford, all the features of enterprise-class software systems. In the last few years, many SMEs have become increasingly aware of the significance of complete visibility of their operational performance and its impact on their business. Hence, the increased adoption of enterprise fraud management systems by SMEs is driving the growth of this market. One of the major drivers in the market is the increasing demand for fraud detection systems in organizations. Since the financial meltdown in 2009, the importance of risk and fraud management across different organizations has increased. Therefore, organizations are increasingly adopting enterprise fraud management systems in order to minimize risk and survive in the changing market environment and to make on-the-spot decisions about business operations. One of the major challenges is the high cost of implementation. The deployment of enterprise fraud management system is an expensive process. It entails a very conservative and costly process of defining requirements. After purchasing the software license, organizations also need to hire resources for proper implementation of the software. In addition, post implementation the enterprise fraud management system needs to be upgraded according to current market trends, which is one of the major challenges in terms of cost for SMEs.
