Conducting KYC processes across 5 territories within a year for a brilliant bank.

The background.
A leading European bank approached us with a request to help them comply with KYC regulations in five countries across Europe. They needed a partner they could trust to contact and verify all customers flagged as low or medium risk across 5 countries and languages and conduct ongoing due diligence to ensure KYC procedures are followed when onboarding customers

The client had a high visibility regulatory requirement to retroactively conduct KYC processes within 12 months including:

• Identification of customers across 5 countries and languages
• Establishing contacts with a large number of customers across corporate and retail customers
• Collection of missing KYC data and documents
• Follow-up as needed to obtain incomplete/incorrect information

The solution.

Transcom created a time-bound project and drove the realization from a data gap analysis to successful remediation through a five-step program.

Step 1: Leading data gap analysis methods

Step 2: Client outreach

Step 3: Industry-leading collection and validation

Step 4: Regulatory form completion 

Step 5: Successful remediation

The results.

1. Full compliance with KYC regulations and no penalties
