In Digital document verification, by using OCR technology the information from these documents is extracted and checked in order to identify the individuals. Another form is to complete customer due diligence by Video KYC in which a customer is on a video call with a business representative who asks the customer to upload or show various documents to the camera for validation. This method is quick and not frustrating like manual identity verification. The team of analysts verify each document and assign a risk factor to the customers based on the predictions from the data.

Even in this pandemic, cybercriminals are not stopping and coming up with new tricks to carry out their fraudulent activities. SO digital KYC solutions provide a contactless way to authenticate an identity before falling in the pit of fraudsters. AI-powered KYC solutions use hybrid technology to help  the businesses in recognizing and fighting against fraudsters which are needed more than ever during this coronavirus outbreak. 

    A Deep Dive in Know Your Business:

    The KYB process is to check if you are dealing with authentic business entities or just the shell companies present on papers only, saving businesses from trusting the wrong entities for partnerships or deals. Many data breach cases in the past have occured due to the reason that companies trusted wrong businesses for their private data without authentication if they are real or not. For KYB, AML checks are performed to make sure that the business you are about to deal with has never been involved in any money laundering activity. Proper document verification is mandatory by the regulators when dealing with foreign entities to authenticate that the company is real and not a shell company. Such verification can be performed in the matter of seconds with the help of digital document verification of the top management through official identity documents and Anti Money Laundering Checks.

    To determine the true identity of a verifying business and to check for the financial risk attached to that business digital KYB checks are performed. With Anti Money Laundering services businesses can check the involvement or presence of any official of the company in any watchlist or financial risk database. So it will help the business not to go blind and lose private data and billions in hands of wrong business dealings. 

    All About Know Your Transactions:

    For banks and other financial institutes, Know your transaction KYT is the process to monitor all the transactions done by the customers to have complete data-centric information. There are major financial transactions happening on the customer account including:

    • Cash Transactions(Domestic)

    • Bills & LC Transactions.

    To identify when any suspicious transaction takes place and to trace money laundering, terrorist financing or any other fraudulent activities such transaction checks play a vital role. If any business is found to be a part of any kind of money laundering activity, it will not only stain their reputation but they will have to pay a hefty fine to the regulatory authority. Digital KYT  is a process to have a proper check to avoid falling in any such fraudulent charge. 

    KYB

    A study revealed, only 5% of the global payments were done through the paper  which  highlights the major change in the payment mix, and growth in the cashless transactions. Business analysts explain this growth in relevance With the advent of online and mobile banking that offers frictionless customer experience, cashless transactions have become very common. So KYT is the need of the hour for constant monitoring of the transactions for fraud detection and to make you businesses free from fraudulent activities. Businesses can always stay a step ahead of cybercriminals if they have proper checks and solutions to perform identity verification of individuals.
