Bruno Farinelli

Fraud Analytics and Management expert, Bruno is really passionate about 2 things: fighting fraud and developing people. He joined ClearSale Brazil (one of the fastest SME growing companies in Brazil) in 2012, after previous experience with biometrics and browsing behavior. He quickly became a key participant in one of the most successful cases the company has, by using his extensive knowledge in anti-fraud practices to increase our client's revenue while drastically reducing their chargeback levels. In 2015, Bruno was invited to build the Fraud Analytics department for ClearSale in USA, using all of his previous experiences in Brazil (one of the riskiest markets in the world) to help US merchants. Bruno holds a Bachelor's degree in Statistics from one of the Best Brazilian Universities (UNICAMP - Universidade Estatual de Campinas) and an MBA in Business Intelligence from one of the most well-known Technology Institute in Latin America (FIAP - Faculdade de Informática e Administração Paulista).
