        What is KYC?

        KYC, or Know Your Customer, is a set of regulatory guidelines for customer identity verification procedures. The implementation of relevant KYC procedures is mandatory for financial institutions and other companies or organisations that conduct monetary transactions, such as cryptocurrency platforms, gambling platforms, insurance providers or non-profit organisations. 

        The KYC framework can be divided into three categories: Identity Verification, Customer Due Diligence (CDD) and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD). These three steps ensure that a customer's identity is real, that they are not a financial risk, and that any potential misconduct in their financial transaction history is immediately detected and reported.

        KYC CHECK KYC Checks

        The complexity of a KYC check varies from customer to customer. For those who present an elevated risk factor, more research and in-depth verification will be required to assess whether a business relationship is plausible or even safe.

        Identity Verification

        Identity verification means exactly what the name implies; it is the process of verifying a customer's identity by means of government-issued identification documents and confirming the customer's presence through facial recognition.

        Customer Due Diligence

        CDD is the process of researching the customer's legal history for the purpose of establishing a customer risk profile. Following the verification of the customer's identity, proving the legitimacy of their documentation, and assessing their risk profile, an account for that customer may be established at the financial institution's or company's discretion.

        Enhanced Due Diligence

        EDD is the continuation of KYC policies once an account has been created. EDD ensures that any suspicious activity is immediately flagged and reported to the appropriate regulatory authority.

        COMPLIANCE KYC Compliance

        Complying with KYC regulations is mandatory for financial institutions and other businesses that perform monetary transactions, such as online gambling or e-health service providers. 

        To best prevent the various forms of financial crime, those entering into work relationships that involve financial transactions are responsible for properly investigating potential clients in advance. Furthermore, if suspicious activity is detected but not reported, those responsible for reporting will be held accountable as well.

        Failure to comply with KYC regulations may result in considerable fines and reputational damage to the company, in addition to potentially jeopardizing other stakeholders. Because financial crime is a serious matter that government bodies do not take lightly, the consequences for non-compliance can range from fines to the complete dissolution of a business.

        However, fortunately, there are innumerous KYC solutions available for companies and institutions to choose from. KYC service providers can help companies navigate the KYC process and develop a fully compatible and compliant solution for their clients.
