KYC Remediation

The Client
A large global broker with inter-dealer broking, corporate and retail broking brands, several of which had been acquired over the previous few years
The Challenge
The client wished to bring the customer data and the management of AML compliance across these multiple brands together in a single system under a single centre-of-excellence team.
The Solution

Lysis used a series of semi-automated tools to identify common customers across multiple different databases and created a clean customer record. The tools also flagged incomplete records or those requiring remediation according to specific risk-based criteria. Lysis analysts then remediated the customer records to ensure that the customer and AML compliance data was complete and up-to-date before loading the customers into the firm's Reuters GoldTier. Lysis assisted the client by creating clean customer records and also applied specific risk-based criteria during the remediation process to establish a golden source of customer data.
