KYC POLICY

KYC is an acronym for “know your customer”, but it could also mean “know your client”. It refers to a mandatory verification of a customer's identity, typically by a financial institution. It includes information that can be used to verify your identity, like a valid identification card, utility bills with your house address, social security number, etc.

Customers are typically required to submit KYC details during account opening and at times, when there has been a change in the information. For example, if you change your name officially a few months after creating your account, you will be required to update your KYC information.

In 2001, KYC verification was introduced and cemented into the Patriot Act. However, it wasn't passed into law until after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The goal of KYC was to curb illicit activities and to highlight suspicious behaviour as early as possible. Investment firm utilize these data to track transaction patterns, in order to ensure that there is no money laundering and terrorism funding for example. Without KYC verification, an investment firm may be held liable when a user gets away with committing a crime because they failed to do due diligence. Henceforth, major exchanges prefer to remain anti-money laundering (AML) compliant. However, KYC and AML do not convey the same thing.
