OREANDA-NEWS. Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ: FISV), a leading global provider of financial services technology solutions, today announced that it will simplify and speed the use of new fraud detection models for clients using its Financial Crime Risk Management Platform by integrating the ADAPA® solution from Zementis, Inc. Fiserv will include ADAPA, which facilitates the rapid deployment, integration and execution of analytic models, with implementations of AML Risk Manager, Check Fraud Manager, Payment Fraud Manager and Customer Risk Manager.
