Join the virtual Onboarding & KYC Deep Dive
Onboarding a client to a bank is a rigorous process of checks that ultimately decide on whether a client is able to access products and open an account with a bank. The need for rigorous KYC standards is entrenched in high regulatory pressure with one study by the European Parliament emphasising that fraud was costing €990 bn a year. As such, fines for financial institutions have dramatically increased, totaling almost $5bn USD in 2022. KYC checks are therefore imperative to a bank’s anti-money laundering (AML) policy, yet this is an incredibly manual and labour intensive process. Banks must therefore look towards emerging technologies and automating low value-added tasks to improve efficiency and effectiveness around onboarding and KYC.
