What is a KYC/AML and why it’s important?

 

KYC (Know Your Customer) is a process of customer identity verification during the onboarding procedure. AML (Anti Money Laundering) means the actions aiming to prevent money laundering and terrorism financing and performed at later stages, for example during the process of funds deposits and/or transfers.

 

 

What documents and information are required for KYC?

 

VNX Platform deploys automated onboarding and compliance systems that allow to check and verify the authenticity of documents, personal data screening and other methods that help our compliance team to make a decision on acceptance of the customer depending on the risk category.

 

We handle your personal data only for compliance purposes and use it strictly in accordance with the Privacy Policy. Due to regulatory restrictions, we are not able to onboard customers from certain countries.

  • Liveness check (you may use your smartphone/ tablet or computer for this purposes); 
  • Document confirming your residence (utility bills, internet/cable TV/House phone line bills, bank statements, tax returns, council tax bills and the government issued Certificates of Residency and others).
