The Evolution of KYC in Treasury

Compliance Task to Strategic Risk Management

Corporate treasury teams have long viewed KYC as simply responding to banks’ requests for company information - a process often seen as repetitive and time-consuming.

But rising fraud risks and global uncertainty are pushing many to adopt a broader KYCp approach that includes suppliers, customers, and wider counterparty risks.

In this webinar, experts Ernie Humphrey, Lee-Ann Perkins, and Sune Warberg Clausen explore how treasury teams are leveraging technology to automate responses, strengthen compliance, and save time.

They also discuss current trends in how banks are streamlining their own processes, and how leading KYC solutions are evolving to help treasury leaders take a more strategic role in managing risk and supporting growth.

"Counterparty assessment called KYC is really growing, especially since Russia's invasion of the Ukraine."


"...With all the sanctions that followed, there's a lot of focus on that. So what we see is that more and more non-regulated companies are starting to ask their counterparty, like customers or suppliers, for traditional KYC information."
