Cost of Compliance results in “De-risking” • Definition • “De-risking refers to the phenomenon of financial institutions terminating or restricting business relationships with clients or categories of clients to avoid, rather than manage, risk.” (source: World Bank Group 2015) • Reason for De-risking • Customers do not generate sufficient revenue to overcome compliance costs; • The Institution provides payment services to customers about which the necessary information for an adequate risk assessment is not available; • Customers are located in jurisdictions perceived as too risky; • The Customer offers products or services or has customers that pose a higher risk for anti-money laundering/combating the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) (Source: CPMI Correspondent banking July 2016)
Revenue vs Cost of doing business: Which elements can you influence? Insufficient information about (risky) clients: What more can you provide, and how? Perception: How can you change it?

Addressing the cost: Identifying efficiency gains • 100 banks have a relationship - manual approach, no standard • Each bank completes 99 client KYC’s and provides own data to 99 banks • Compliance teams at 100 banks respond to 99 KYC requests=9.900 outgoing KYC Profiles (data and document packages) • Relationship teams at 100 banks complete 99 KYC’s each = 9.900 incoming KYC Profiles that need to be analysed • Same 100 banks when using The KYC Registry • Each bank delivers its own KYC in standard format into The KYC Registry once 9.900 = 100 outgoing KYC’s • Each bank completes 99 client KYC’s (9.900 as before) BUT: • Now based on standardised validated data • No need for conversion of data into electronic format • Certainty that data conforms with regulations
