KYC – Know Your Customer

Know your customer (‘KYC’) is the process of a business identifying and verifying the identity of its clients.[1] The term is also used to refer to the bank and anti-money laundering regulations which governs these activities.

Banks, insurers and export creditors are increasingly demanding that customers provide detailed anti-corruption due diligence information.
