KYC & CUSTOMER DUE DILIGENCE (CDD)

Know who you are doing business with

Proper KYC & customer due diligence (CDD) checks protect your business from being used, knowingly or not, for illegal activity. UAE regulators expect every business to carry out these checks before onboarding new customers. Getting this step wrong is one of the most common issues regulators raise during inspections, so it deserves real attention rather than a quick box-tick exercise. FundZone supports you in setting up KYC & customer due diligence (CDD) processes that are thorough yet simple to run day to day. We design each process around how your team actually onboards customers, so it becomes second nature rather than an extra chore.
