“The Perception Constituents and Companies have that a Tax Authority has all ‘Contra Information’ available and using it, is shifting.”

Analytics – Great, but…
• Fraud has already taken place, so money is gone…• Models are based on historic perspective of non-compliance• Models tend to be static and tend to be difficult to change/update• Models do not take into account the changes in Taxpayer behavior
associated with non-compliance• Most fraud systems deliver an overwhelming amount of false positives• What about the underground economy?
We need more than the ability to find the “Needle in the Hay Stack”

Not every Fraudster is the same
• Many different fraud strategy groups (A..Z and beyond)– Apple from the crate: Isolated (smaller) incidents and hope the Revenue Agency does
not notice– Bonnie & Clyde: Get as much as possible, as quickly as possible – Chameleon: Blend in and act as normal as possible (too ‘Normal’?)– Double barrel: (A-)synchronous intertwined VAT Carrousels– E…
• Each of the above (not limited by the alphabet) may have many variants• Fraudsters do not generally give up. They change strategies!
How many Strategies to anticipate?

The Concept
• Build the model– Capture behavioral aspects in models of ‘normal’ compliant Taxpayers– Capture relevant data on selected aspects (Structured and unstructured (both Big Data))– Create benchmarks (Data Mining (on Big Data); Population of scorecard templates)– Test drive with a feed-back loop into a Decision Engine (Enhance the Models)
• Run it!– Reflect current behaviors and profiles against the “Compliant Taxpayer” model and the absence of
“normal” behavior is a pointer to non-compliance– Continuous learning / improvement through Feed-back loop with a Real Time Decision Engine
“One-class approach” – a Compliant Taxpayer

How to Use Big Data and Real-Time Decisions to Combat Fraud
Traditional fraud detection has not been particularly successful, largely because it happens after the fact (at times, as long as two years after an incident). New thinking needs to be injected into the strategies for dealing with fraud. Through the use of cutting-edge technology that brings transactional, analytical, and big data together in real time, Oracle’s new approach can detect deviant behavior much earlier, enabling revenue agencies to combat fraud in a much more effective way.

Compliance
• Tax Compliance is when a taxpayer Files for and Pays the correct amount of tax, (calculated correctly on the correct Tax Base for Assessment) in the correct place at the correct time.
• Correct means that the economic substance of the transactions undertaken coincides with the place and form in which they are reported for taxation purposes.

Conspirators have made a profit of £500,000 perfectly legitimately on buying and selling mobile telephones.
But now:
• The first business (B) vanishes without paying the VAT to HMRC.
• When the last business in the chain collects £240,000 on the export, all of the businesses can vanish, £220,000 better off at the expense of HMRC
As this business is removed from the vanishing party, it is hard for HMRC to show the links in the chain and thereby could refuse to refund the VAT on the export.
