For companies operating at international level, know business partners is essential to run profitable and safe relationships. It requires the adoption of internal procedures to ascertain and verify the identity of customers, vendors or other economic players, in other words put in place a Know your Customers (KYC) process.
The KYC report is the solution to this need, fulfilling two primary functions:
Clarify who really has the ownership of a company, identifying the Beneficial Owner and the Shareholders
Protect the brand’s reputation, avoiding relationships with entities with an unclear or unknown company structure.
