AML REGULATORY TECHNOLOGY

What is AML KYC?

The acronym KYC stands for Know Your Customer. It is used in compliance with anti-money laundering laws.  KYC requires customer profiling. A KYC profile enables a business to understand the risks the customer presents to committing crimes involving Money Laundering or Financing of Terrorism (ML/FT).

When a profiling methodology is adequately applied, results will identify the inherent characteristics that increase the likelihood of the customer engaging in ML/FT.

AML/KYC: Customer Due Diligence

There are two parts to AML/KYC customer due diligence.  The first part involves identity verification and screening. This part of AML/CFT compliance is understood well by most businesses.  However, the second part of customer due diligence is poorly understood: risk profiling. 

Customer risk profiling examines the nature and purpose of the underlying customer relationship. Also known as a customer risk assessment, profiling will produce a risk score.  The risk score increases in line with the number of inherent ML/FT characteristics that are present in the nature and purpose of the customer’s account activity.

AML/KYC: Ongoing Due Diligence

Sometimes referred to as transaction monitoring, ongoing due diligence identifies when the customer’s activity is unusual or suspicious.  Reporting suspicious activity is the primary objective of AML/CFT laws.

To establish a KYC monitoring system, businesses need to incorporate product and service risk assessments, customer risk profiling and determine the rules of customer behaviour that should result in a red flag alert.

When a red flag is identified, the matter will be escalated to determine whether it is indeed suspicious or expected account activity.

KYC REPORTING

Importance of AML/KYC Record Keeping

KYC requires evidence-based records to prove obligations have been met with the implementation of customer risk profiling and ongoing monitoring.

Unless a business can produce these records, it will struggle to show it is adequately focused on AML/CFT compliance. Such failures increase the likelihood of a regulatory breach and, subsequently, a financial penalty.
