Four pillars of KYC for Fintechs

Most countries will have their own anti-financial crime regulations that financial institutions including Fintechs need to comply with.

KYC, AML, ABC, CFT, regulations the world over will require you to follow different customer due diligence (CDD) rules. But there are 4 key pillars of KYC that are usually consistent across every region, and Moody's has leading data sources and workflow automation to help you with each one.

  • A Customer Identification Program (CIP), for identity verification
  • Customer due diligence (CDD), a process of making sure a potential customer is trustworthy
  • Ongoing monitoring or perpetual KYC creating oversight of new risk
  • Suspicious Activities Reports (SAR) when there is unusual activity on a customer account

The Fintech sector has achieved breakneck growth but demands on organizational resources to manage millions of accounts can be underestimated. Can you demonstrate to regulators that your compliance function, KYC processes, and financial crime controls keep up with customer acquisition?
