Know Your Customer (KYC) is the “process of a business identifying and verifying the identity of its clients”. KYC solutions are also used by banks and companies to ensure anti-corruption compliance and to confirm the identity of customers, agents or distributors.
In India, the Reserve Bank of India introduced KYC guidelines in 2002 for all banks and they were required to become compliant with these by 2005. KYC solutions are aimed at the prevention of money laundering by criminals or corrupt individuals and agencies through banks.
Banks adopt KYC solutions to also gain a better understanding of their customers and their financial profiles. This not only enables them to offer customised products for investment to customers but also to manage risks in a better way. KYC solutions are used in banks for accepting a new customer, identification of existing customers, transaction monitoring and the management of risks. KYC solutions are also adopted by businesses for whom it is the stepping stone for any kind of business relationship including onboarding of employees, loan approvals, partnership and so on. KYC solutions are also essential when seeking a financial product for the partnership or the company.
