History

DecTech was founded by Sean Hollingdale in 2001 in Melbourne, Australia. The company initially focused on credit scoring services and its flagship software product, Instinct, which is an application fraud detection solution. In 2002, it launched its credit application processing solution, called Activate, then in 2004, Predator, which is its transaction fraud prevention and anti-money laundering solution. The company initially established a base of clients in Asia Pacific^[1] between 2001 and 2004 and then expanded into the Middle East, Europe and Africa from 2005 onwards. In 2008 DecTech established a partnership with Microsoft and has renewed this Business Intelligence partnership each year since then. In 2009 the company partnered with Korea Credit Bureau (KCB), the largest credit bureau in Korea, to establish the first fraud bureau in the country. The fraud bureau provides application fraud prevention services to many lenders, credit card issuers, finance providers and insurance companies in Korea.
