Verifi - Risk Management and Identity Verification Platform

Easy Enable Know-Your-Customer, Enhanced Due Diligence, and Customer Due Diligence 

Easy–to–deploy and multi-faceted solution that mitigates risk and adds efficiency and effectiveness to any governance and compliance program.

In today’s nontransparent world some businesses use complex legal structures and hard-to-determine jurisdictions to hide their actual beneficial ownership and conduct illicit activities. Increased global regulatory scrutiny on customer due diligence and third-party risk management require firms to create a complete profile of those who they conduct business with. However, due to an increasingly borderless world, customer, vendor, and third parties can be difficult to identify. It is also expensive to verify and authenticate the identity, ownership structure, and jurisdiction during onboarding, review, and financial transaction monitoring.

 

Client, Customer, and Third Party Management

The SaaS platform and verification service creates a secure and transparent ecosystem for financial institutions to manage client, vendor, and third parties throughout the entire relationship including: establishing official company representatives, onboarding, archiving documents and emails, and providing traceable collaboration. Intuitive dashboards give vendor or risk managers total control over transactions and visibility into individuals and archived documents providing them insight into the “corporate memory”.

This verification service along with the Verifi secure and transparent digital transaction management platform enables a company administrator to create procedures for the following:

  • Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD)

  • Anti-Fraud (AF)
  • Anti-Terrorism (AT)
  • Know-Your-Customer (KYC)

Platform Features

 

Know Your Customer 

Within Verifi you can verify the identity of any potential clients and assess potential risks for the relationship by simply requesting the identity of a client (3 different levels are offered) with keystroke.  An outside lawyer within our network will determine the individual’s identity, role in a company and Beneficial Ownership.  This report is covered by their insurance and the individual is assigned certain degrees of Trust (indicated by color) within your system. This is also part of the AML regulations required for financial institutions

Blockchain Transparency

The Chain-of-Trust ensures that legal governance guidelines are followed by a verified company representative. A company administrator can assign rules of actions each employee can perform for internal governance. All documents included in a transaction have their metadata stored within the Blockchain to ensure it’s long term integrity.

Digital Transaction Management eSignature Platform

Our high probative value eSignature platform generates “legally authentic” signed documents. It can facilitate individual or group signings, can facilitate complex documents, and one account can be used by many users. It offers one of the highest probative value and follows the “best evidence” in a court of law.

Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD)

For high-risk counterparties enhanced due diligence can be leveraged to augment the CDD process, and to mitigate reputational risk. Verifi uses a global network of certified attorneys and notaries to quickly authenticate and confirm an individual, their role in a company and the firm they work, all at an affordable price.

GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)

The Verifi ecosystem enables financial institutions to comply with strong privacy regulations such as GDPR. Since the client can manage their own personal and confidential information through the certifier network (protected by attorney-client privilege and insured) it keeps the financial institution protected against breach of privacy laws. 

When an American entity receives personal information from an entity or an individual located in Europe, this American entity MUST comply with the Data Privacy Act and the GDPR.  If the American entity uses the services of Clawd and UnikSign, this problem is automatically resolved because UnikSign by the use of a Lawyer creates an automatic FIREWALL between the American entity and the personal information about an entity or an individual located in Europe.  Indeed, this information can stay in the hands of the lawyer located in Europe and just the legal opinion or the declaration of the lawyer is submitted to the American entity.  It is fast, secure and fully integrated within the solution.
