Orchestrate Multi-Agent Real-Time Payment Fraud Triaging with AutoGen

Instant payment rails require sub-second fraud detection and automated investigator queue management. Build an AutoGen multi-agent system where specialized analyst agents collaborate to triage high-speed ISO 20022 messages, reducing investigation latency by 75%.

Challenge brief

What you are building

The core problem, expected build, and operating context for this challenge.

Build an AutoGen multi-agent system of specialized investigators to inspect and triage instant payment transactions.

Delivery guide

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates the triage accuracy and speed of AutoGen agent conversations on ISO 20022 streams.

Datasets

Challenge datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

High Value Offshore Hold Test

High value transactions to offshore entities must be held.

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

Triage Precision

Accuracy of suspicious transaction flags. • target: 0.96 • range: 0.9-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

What you should walk away with

  • Configure an AutoGen team consisting of a Transaction Parser, Graph Analyst, and Triage Lead.

  • Parse and validate structured ISO 20022 XML/JSON payment payloads in real time.

  • Facilitate automated consensus discussions among agents regarding transaction hold status.

  • Reduce manual investigator queue backlog while suppressing false alarms.
