Know Your Customer Questionnaire

Overview

KYC (Know Your Customer) is a deeply complex requirement of all financial institutions. The demands of this process are a moving target with shifting regulations, all the while under threat of heavy fines and diminished customer reputation.

A central obligation is to gather customer information from your clientele to ensure that bad actors are identified early in the process. These forms can be convoluted and typically need to be maintained by your developers which is an expensive undertaking.

To accelerate your ability to both implement and manage your various KYC Questionnaires, Macedon has introduced the KYCQ module. This is an extension of our Dynamic Question Survey application (DQS) that has been tuned specifically for KYC. Embedding this tool in your onboarding, recertification, and other processes will drastically reduce your time to delivery on new questionnaire types, variable changes by product, and adjustments for regulatory change.
