How we ensure robust KYC verification

Individual Identity

Identity verification in KYC (Know Your Customer) is the process of confirming that a customer is who they claim to be. It’s a critical step in preventing fraud, money laundering, and other financial crimes. Here’s how it typically works:

The process involves checking:

  • Biometric Verification
    • Customers take a selfie or perform a live video check.
    • Advanced Facial recognition software compares it to the ID photo to ensure it’s a real person and not a stolen identity.
  • Data Matching
    • Voters roll (public version) – UK Edited Voters DatabaseIdentity Register – “commercial data drawn from multiple sources of UK data, the data is cleansed against the UK Electoral register and Royal mail PAF” – UK National Identity Register
    • Deceased persons – UK Deceased Persons Database
    • Change of address register – UK National Change of Address Database
    • UK Birth Registry, starting in 1984, comes from the National Archives – UK Births Registry Database
    • GBG’s Identity Score algorithm – GBGScore https://www.gbg.com/en/verify-identity/identity-score/
    • International Age Algorithm
  • Liveness Detection
    • AI tools ensure the biometric input is from a live person, not a photo, video, or deepfake.

Document verification in KYC (Know Your Customer) is the process of checking the authenticity and validity of official documents submitted by a customer to prove their identity, address, or other relevant details. It’s a critical part of identity verification and helps financial institutions and regulated businesses stay compliant with anti-money laundering (AML) laws.

Key Aspects of Document Verification:

Accepted Documents

  • Proof of Identity: Passport, driver’s license, national ID card
  • Proof of Address: Utility bill, bank statement, rental agreement

  • Verification checks

    • Authenticity: Detects forged or tampered documents using AI or manual review

    • Validity: Confirms the document is not expired or invalid

    • Consistency: Matches data (e.g., name, DOB) with what the user provided
    • Security Features: Checks for holograms, watermarks, and MRZ (machine-readable zone)
  • Technology Used
    • Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to extract and analyze text
    • AI-based pattern recognition for fraud detection
    • Database cross-checking to verify data (optional)
    • Manual Review (if needed)

 

Sanctions screening involves checking individuals or entities against official government or international lists of sanctioned parties. These sanctions can be imposed for various reasons, including terrorism, drug trafficking, human rights violations, or political conflicts.

Possible sanctions checks include:

  • Sanctions check, without having to do separate AML – International Sanctions
  • Enhanced PEP check, without having to do separate AML – International Enhanced PEP

Screening customers at the point of account opening or beginning of a business relationship is only the first step. As people and businesses change, being alerted to anything that could impact your risk is critically important.
