Still wasting hours on manual KYC checks?
Discover how AI-powered compliance is changing the game for South African businesses.
You are no doubt familiar with this picture:
You’re onboarding a new client. Documents in hand: IDs, proof of address, company registrations, but now comes the real work.
Manual checks. Data inconsistencies. Endless back-and-forth with registries. It’s tedious, error-prone and full of risk. At the same time, regulatory pressures are mounting. FIC-amendments. FATF-grey listing; real consequences for even small oversights.
For many businesses, this burden is growing faster than their resources can keep up.
