Know Your Customer (KYC) is a process used by financial institutions to verify the identity of their customers. It is a risk management tool used to prevent money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crimes. KYC involves collecting and verifying customer information such as name, address, date of birth, and other identifying documents. This information is then used to assess the customer's risk profile and determine the level of due diligence required. KYC is an important part of the financial industry, as it helps to ensure that customers are who they say they are and that their funds are not being used for illegal activities. It also helps to protect financial institutions from potential losses due to fraud or other criminal activities. Some companies in the KYC market include Thomson Reuters, LexisNexis Risk Solutions, Experian, and Accuity. Show Less Read more
