How to reduce time and complexity in identifying Ultimate Beneficial Owners

Thanks Melvin.  International coverage of any solution of course depends on the data availability in the target geography, which also depends on the self-certification (unless mandatory) by the companies themselves.  We work with fantastic data partners to ensure coverage is as wide and as cost effective as possible for our customers.  I'd be happy to talk to you more about it to see if the solution was useful and appropriate to you. Cheers, Adam.

Modernizing Fintech Compliance in a Post-COVID Economy

I totally agree Payson.  Compliance has for too long not been considered an integral part of customer experience, and it absolutely can and should be.  You are right in identifying that those financial services organisations and their technology and compliance partners who focus first and foremost on the needs of the customer will be positioned most favourably, both financially and morally. 

The appetite for funds from businesses who want and need to survive and/or thrive is enormous, and we should all work together to ensure that they get these resources fairly, securely and quickly.  If we can do that then it is to everyone's benefit.
