Articles and insights

More reading on KYC

Generative AI (GenAI) is a seriously trending global topic. The reason for its success is the ease of use in a multitude of use cases, such as writing articles, writing code, and debugging code. Although GenAI has taken the world by storm, it’s actually not a new concept. There have been models developed by OpenAI, and others, able to perform similar tasks, so why is it now getting so much traction?

To effectively address KYC compliance and manage risk, organizations benefit from an always-on understanding of where risks lie across their business network. Periodic reviews that look at changes in a customer’s risk profile once every 1-, 3-, or 5- years fall short when identifying changes to sanctions lists, election outcomes, and negative news stories that can dramatically alter a risk profile overnight.

Automation. Efficiency. Effectiveness. Cost-saving. These are what many organizations prioritize when it comes to know your customer (KYC) solutions. They are important considerations, but they aren’t the only ones to factor when approaching KYC. On the other side of the value equation comes competitive advantage, customer experience, brand advocacy, and business growth. All these benefits can come as a result of delivering better KYC experiences when onboarding and monitoring customers.
