Know-Your-Customer (KYC) is a part of Customer Due Diligence, the process of identifying and verifying the customers of a regulated financial institution or designated non-financial business and profession. Know-Your-Customer (KYC) is a comprehensive check ranging from obtaining and verifying general data of the customer, determining the ultimate beneficial owner, checking for red flags indicating possible money laundering risks and ultimately making a rational decision whether to approve the case or report the client to he relevant authorities.

Money laundering risk factors such as country risk, industry risk, risks deriving from the legal entity type, delivery channel risk and product risk will all be touched upon and explained in further detail.
