Know-Your-Business (KYB) is a process similar to KYC (Know-Your-Customer) but that focuses specifically on businesses. When a business signs up with a cryptocurrency platform, KYB helps verify the legitimacy and ownership of the company. This might involve checking business registration documents, information about the company's owners and directors, and the nature of the business and its activities.
KYB helps ensure that only reputable businesses are participating in the cryptocurrency ecosystem. This adds another layer of security and helps prevent fraud or misuse of the platform. ComPilot offers KYB as part of its all-in-one compliance solution. Learn more
Know-Your-Transaction (KYT) is an important step in business processes that goes beyond just knowing who your customer is (KYC). While KYC verifies the identity of a customer using the platform, KYT focuses on the transactions performed on the platform. This involves monitoring the customer’s activity to identify any suspicious behavior.
By analyzing things like the source and destination of funds, transaction amounts, and frequency, KYT can help flag any activity that might be unusual or indicate potential money laundering, terrorist financing or other illegal actions. Companies operating in web3 space must employ effective tools for transaction monitoring. ComPilot offers transaction monitoring and wallet screening. Learn more
AML stands for Anti-Money Laundering. Money laundering is the process of trying to hide the source of money obtained illegally. AML Customer Screening is one of the ways ComPilot helps businesses comply with regulations to prevent money laundering from happening on their platform.
During AML Customer Screening, ComPilot checks the customers against special lists of people and businesses that governments and international organizations have identified as being high risk for money laundering or other illegal activities. These lists might include criminals, terrorists, or sanctioned entities. By comparing customers to these lists, ComPilot can help identify potential risks and prevent bad actors from using the platform for illegal purposes.
