Identity verification and KYB, built into intake
Client due diligence is a legal duty. It shouldn’t mean photocopies and an extra office visit.
How it works
From the client record or the matter, staff send a verification request. The client photographs their ID, completes a short liveness check and face match on their phone, and is screened against sanctions lists, politically exposed persons and adverse media. Checks are run by our identity-verification partner, Didit.
For companies, KYB checks the company and its documents, and each director or beneficial owner completes their own identity check.
People decide
Possible matches go to a person for review and alert the managing partner. Asem never clears or rejects a client automatically, and client-account money stays locked until due diligence is approved. Results are held per firm, because under the Anti-Money Laundering Act, 2020 (Act 1044) each firm is responsible for its own due diligence.
