Recommendation 39
39
Paragraph: 154
Concern exists regarding perceived GDPR restrictions on data sharing for fraud prevention.
Recommendation
We are concerned to hear that there is a perception that legislation such as GDPR is preventing the sharing of information and intelligence across sectors where frauds were suspected. Data-sharing laws should not restrict the sharing of information for law enforcement purposes, or where this information could prevent a fraudster being able to move to a new bank or platform to continue their crimes.
