Comprehensive Identity Verification Can Fuel Financial Services Growth

Financial services organizations should not have to choose between security and speed when onboarding customers.

When organizations strike a balance between the two, they position themselves for growth and ensure their compliance teams can meet Know Your Customer (KYC) regulatory requirements. A global identity platform can provide that balance with customizable identity and business verification workflows that easily adapt to changing market conditions, shifting regulations and different customer risk profiles. 

The Right Fit for Financial Services

Financial services face a broad range of digital threats, including money laundering, fraud and third-party risk. Automated identity and business verification tools and services that leverage artificial intelligence and machine learning can form a sophisticated response that achieves regulatory compliance.

Organizations, though, face the challenge of finding the verification tools that meet their needs. But there are questions to ask that can help them get to the right answer.

• How quickly can the verification tools adjust to new markets?
• How much staff time is needed for integration?
• How easily do workflows adapt to new compliance requirements?
• Does the customer experience meet expectations for speed and convenience? How does it affect conversion rates?
• How robust are the automated processes? How often are manual processes necessary?
• How is data stored, processed and analyzed? What data security procedures are in place?
• How can different tools and services work together to add value to the entire system?
• How audit-ready are procedures, reports and data?
• How easy is it to check analytics and gather insights?

Verification Technology Promotes Financial Services Growth

Organizations often view identity verification and other compliance, fraud and risk tools as costs. But that same technology can deliver growth.

An automated digital identity platform can amplify risk mitigation by quickly collecting customer data and analyzing it for anomalies. Organizations can expand confidently knowing their risk controls are robust.

Robust risk mitigation also can streamline new service launches. When financial services organizations apply best practices for risk mitigation, internal teams can put more focus on providing the products and services customers need.

Identity verification that delivers fast, smooth customer onboarding and strong match rates around the world can decrease abandonment and enable organizations to expand their global reach.
