This document is a non-editable standard policy template, personalized with your company’s name and branding. It provides a clear framework for customer identity verification procedures, designed to help your business mitigate risks, ensure compliance, and build customer trust.
This policy is based on widely accepted KYC best practices, and includes:
General onboarding and verification procedures
Risk-based approach for different customer profiles
Documentation and record-keeping guidelines
Internal responsibilities and escalation rules
This standard version is suitable for most businesses, especially those not subject to audit or specific regulatory obligations. It offers a solid foundation for demonstrating compliance and due diligence without requiring internal legal or compliance drafting.
For companies operating in regulated sectors or jurisdictions with specific KYC mandates (e.g. financial institutions, crypto platforms, or high-risk industries), we recommend developing a fully tailored version based on operational details, customer base, and legal obligations.
At Compliance Edge, we specialize in navigating the complex landscape of regulatory compliance for high-risk sectors. Our expert guidance ensures your operations stay within legal frameworks, safeguarding your business against risks and enhancing industry standards.
