Why You Need a Trusted Advisor for Safeguarding B2B Payments

In the ever-evolving world of business, security has become a non-negotiable priority. The threat landscape is continuously changing, and businesses are often challenged to keep up with the latest trends in fraud prevention. Among the prevalent threats, B2B payment fraud stands as a significant concern. In 2022 alone, 56% of US companies were affected by B2B payment fraud, with 12% targeted by more than ten fraud attempts¹​. This illustrates the urgent need for businesses to partner with a trusted expert who not only understands these risks but actively works to protect against them. This is where Finexio comes in.

At Finexio, we understand the complexities of B2B payment fraud and the devastating impact it can have on businesses. In 2022, 24% of companies that fell victim to fraud lost more than $100,000, and 5% lost more than $1 million¹​​. But the financial loss is just the tip of the iceberg. Fraud can also strain supplier relationships, tarnish a company's reputation, and disrupt customer or investor relationships​^1​​.
