How can we help you?

Know Your Business (KYB) verification is a company's Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance requirement. Know Your Business (KYB) generally requires a company to perform suitable due diligence by collecting & analyzing a range of data and information on the businesses with which they are associated. KYB verification measures are key components of Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Combating the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) regulations.

TransFi's KYB process ensures AML compliance through thorough data collection, verification, and reporting.

Key Elements:

Standard Due Diligence (SDD):

Individuals: Verifies identity using government-issued IDs and proof of address.

Corporates: Requires registration documents, shareholder certificates, proof of address, EIN/TIN, and IDs for major owners.

Verification: Confirms document authenticity with regulatory sources.

Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD):

High-Risk Customers: Flags higher-risk customers (e.g., politically exposed persons, custodial crypto services).

Additional Verification: Requests further documents to assess AML risks.

Investigation: Conducts necessary investigations for high-risk customers.

This process ensures secure and compliant transactions for all users.
