Recorded Webinar: The future of KYC and AML: How to tackle the challenges and gain the opportunities of perpetual KYC

24 March 2022

Perpetual Know Your Customer (or pKYC) could be a game changer for client onboarding, due diligence and financial crime compliance. Moving on from today’s reactive approach that conducts client KYC processes at onboarding and typically at one, three and five year intervals, pKYC takes a proactive approach, creating a digital KYC profile and dynamically refreshing customer data in response to specified triggers.

The challenges of pKYC adoption include developing a digital operating model, ensuring integration across technology, data and customers, setting parameters for changes that will dynamically trigger a customer data refresh, and cultural buy-in.

The advantages include reduced risk based on an accurate and up-to-date view of regulatory risk, improved due diligence and compliance with AML requirements (AML), and ultimately, vastly better customer service and satisfaction.

Register for the webinar to find out more about:

  • How the concept of perpetual KYC is evolving
  • Best practice approaches to implementation
  • Helpful RegTech solutions and services
  • Inherent challenges of perpetual KYC
  • Opportunities of a successful implementation
