Your challenges

Financial institutions face increasing challenges within their Know Your Customer (KYC) strategy and operations, compelling them to think and act differently.

Maintaining these KYC operations internally leads to inefficiencies and high cost of ownership, which is often underestimated. Externalizing KYC activities improves output quality, increases risk management, and accelerates counterparty onboarding.

Need for increased operational efficiency

  • Compliance cost increase
  • Onboarding time
  • Evolving regulatory environment
  • Availability of suitable resources

Reaching sustainable compliance is more than ever an objective for the industry

Need for increased risk management

  • Regulatory pressure
  • Controls and sanctions
  • Financial and regulatory risk
  • Reputational damage
