Web Shield research shows that 57% of e-commerce merchants change their offering within a month of securing an acquiring contract. This shows that underwriting isn’t just a point-of-entry activity; monitoring is a crucial component. After all, it’s not until merchants start depositing transactions that you know if your initial risk assessment was correct.

Implemented effectively, ongoing monitoring makes it easier to prevent, detect, respond and recover from adverse incidents. Those with robust risk management structures and confidence in them can be more enterprising and entrepreneurial. In short, they can take more calculated and controlled risks to boost their business, reputation and bottom line.
