How Do I Get An Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Check?
AML Check Overview
An AML Check helps you comply with the latest Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations.
The report allows you to establish the following:
- Does the identity exist?
- Is the customer who they say they are?
- Is there any detrimental information relating to the identity?
The report includes checks across many different sources which makes it more rigorous than manual ID checking. You can use an AML Check to complement or replace your existing process.
Our AML Checks follow the Joint Money Laundering Steering Group (JMLSG) guidelines and allow you to validate the identity of an individual in around 3 seconds.
