You're Spending Too Much Time on KYC
KYC Taking Too Much Time? You're Not Alone
If you feel like your Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance tasks are eating up an unreasonable amount of time, you're not alone. For many accounting and financial firms, the KYC process has become a major time-drain that pulls focus away from core work.
Why is the KYC process so time-consuming?
Numerous manual steps: Staff often collect and input data by hand using spreadsheets or Word templates.
Complex regulations: AML laws require ongoing updates and documentation, eating up resources.
Repeated checks: Any changes in customer details require reassessments.
Disparate systems: Data scattered across emails, PDFs, and Excel files slows down the process and increases risk.
The Consequences: Lost Time and Added Risk
Less time for client work: Time spent on admin is time not spent on billable services.
Higher risk of mistakes: Manual processes increase the likelihood of compliance failures.
Frustration and inefficiency: Staff face stress and clients get frustrated by slow onboarding.
Hidden costs: Admin-heavy workflows reduce firm-wide profitability.
Automation: How to Take Back Control
The solution? Automating your KYC process. With a modern KYC platform, much of the tedious legwork is handled automatically.
What can be automated?
Data collection: Auto-import customer and company data from official sources.
ID verification: Use secure digital ID methods like BankID instead of manual checks.
Real-time screening: Instantly check for PEPs or sanctions.
Continuous monitoring: Get notified of changes in client status that trigger reassessments.
Centralized documentation: Standardized, audit-friendly recordkeeping in one place.
Let the system do the heavy lifting so your team can focus on value, not paperwork.
