During the event, KYC Portal joined the ranks of an elite global group and have been handed the honour of winning the award for the Best Client Lifecycle Management Solution, alongside winners from Barclays Private Bank, Citibank UK Limited, HSBC Private Banking and BNP Paribas Wealth Management, to mention a few.

Showcasing the best in the European region, the awards have been designed to recognise outstandin­g organisati­ons grouped by specialism and geography which the prestigiou­s panel of independen­t judges deemed to have “demonstrat­ed innovation and excellence during the last year”.

Each of these categories is highly contested and is subject to a rigorous process before the ultimate winner is selected by the judges. It is this process that makes WealthBrie­fing awards so prized among winners.

Participan­ts around the world recognise that winning awards is particular­ly important in these challengin­g times as it gives clients reassuranc­e in the solidity and sustainabi­lity of the winner’s business and operating model.

ClearView Financial Media’s CEO and Publisher of WealthBrie­fing, Stephen Harris, was first to extend his congratula­tions to all the winners. He said: “The organisati­ons and individual­s who triumphed in these awards are all worthy winners and I would like to extend my heartiest congratula­tions to the winners and to those who have put so much work into each winning submission.

These awards were independen­tly and expertly judged solely on the basis of entrants’ submission­s and their response to a number of specific questions, which were answered by focusing on the client experience rather than purely quantitati­ve performanc­e metrics. That is a unique, and I believe, compelling feature. These awards recognise the very best operators in European wealth management, with ‘independen­ce’, ‘integrity’ and ‘genuine insight’ the watchwords of the judging process – such that the awards truly reflect excellence in European wealth management.”

On receiving the award, it was announced that judges noted that the winner claims to be the most advanced and fully dynamic, realtime, risk-driven, complete end-to-end Client Lifecycle Management solution on the market, developed specifical­ly in order to help organisati­ons stay compliant, was well supported by evidence provided by its well-developed submission. A very worthy winner!

KYCP is the most advanced and fully dynamic, real-time, risk-driven, complete end-to-end Client Lifecycle Management solution on the market, developed specifical­ly in order to help organisati­ons stay compliant with all the regulatory changes, on top of competitio­n, all the while being in full control with risk exposure reduced to a minimum.

The onboarding module within KYC Portal is called the Customer Outreach Tool, an embedded module that is part and parcel of the product which allows external subjects to be able to on-board themselves. The importance of this module being integrated within KYC Portal is critical as the data that the system presents to the end-user is dynamicall­y maintained by the organisati­on itself. Based on the data that the customer is filling in the first step (forms) the system is in realtime calculatin­g the risk being perceived. Which risk is dynamicall­y changing the requiremen­ts in the next steps, which enables the subject to upload their own documents and answer any questionna­ires, based on the defined enhanced due diligence process set in KYCP.

KYC Portal allows the compliance team to streamline and define within the system all that has to do with the ongoing side of KYC and due diligence alerting your teams when something needs to be addressed rather than having a team of employees who are constantly on the lookout for such happenings. Based on KYCP’s fully dynamic configurat­ion engine, which is in the hands of your compliance teams to update and tweak accordingl­y, it allows you to define your review process at subject level based on risk, define the document requiremen­ts also based on the enhanced due diligence process, integrate with third-party screening services for constant daily alerts on changed risk levels of subjects and calculates risk in real-time on all data being fed.

With a system like KYC Portal, the work that is usually all done on the date of the review of the respective applicatio­n is spread throughout the lifetime of the subject based on what needs to happen when.

“We are proud to have created the first fully embedded CLM solution for the due diligence function of any company in any jurisdicti­on. KYC Portal offers an entire lifecycle from the very first steps of onboarding a counterpar­ty while also automating the full ongoing aspect of due diligence. This seamless combinatio­n delivers a lot of benefit to our customers since it allows them to be in full control of both sides of the journey leading to a lifecycle that is tailored on the process requiremen­ts but also a system that adapts the journey based on the real time data that is being input at that stage of the lifecycle,” added Zammit Ciantar, KYC portal founder and CEO.
