What is KYC?
KYC (Know Your Customer) is a process by which a company gathers enough evidence and information on its clients in accordance with its other clients’ needs and with the regulation.In the financial world, KYC is particularly strict, as institutions are legally forced to show that they are not — willingly or not — laundering money on behalf of clients (AML or Anti Money Laundering) or financing terrorist states.
Over the years, financial institutions have spent at least USD 321 billion due to market misconduct measures and regulatory measures relating to Anti-Money Laundering(AML) and Countering Terrorism Financing (CTF) since the global financial crisis. While some big firms have been able to scale through the financial burdens of compliance, other small financial institutions are unable to become fully complaint with the AML and CTF regulations. Due to this, the process of KYC has come along to protect against AML and CTF violations.

PROBLEMS WITH KYC

  1. E-KYC : Most financial institutions and individuals who participate in crypto-related businesses have shown reluctant attitude towards kyc as some of them most often feel its an infringement on privacy.
  2. MANUAL : Today's KYC procedure are mostly manual whereby customers have to fill variety of forms before they can be granted access to the services they require. If such customers find the process too tedious, there will be a loss of revenue from such customers.
  3. ANALOG : Analog Kyc processes are those stored on physical documents. These incur extra cost related to the creation, preservation and destruction of paper-based records.

Based on the above mentioned problems of KYC, the traceto.io team has compiled the KYC problem into 4 fundamental question defining how an entity should know their customer.

A. WHO ARE YOU? An identitycard, passport and driver's license issued by the government of a country are proofs of an identity.
B. WHO ARE YOU NOT? This screening process serves as protection against potentially high risk customers such as terrorists politically exposed persons, money launderers etc.
C. ARE YOU STILL WHO YOU SAY YOU ARE? The process of KYC should be revalidated if they are to be re-used by subsequent companies because passage of time my render the previously checked profiles out of date.
D. WHAT DID YOU DO? Transactions of clients should be monitored frequently as it helps to identify unusual activities carried out by customers.
