Save time by letting us perform identity, KYC and AML checks, using the latest in SRA-compliant digital ID verification technology.
"Neither the money laundering regulations, nor guidance require firms to see or verify original documents, so if a firm is using a technology solution to obtain and verify identification documents, they wouldn't be required to duplicate those checks themselves by calling in originals."
