Automate identity verification, document checks and regulatory screening to accelerate onboarding without exposing your institution to compliance risk.
Every new customer relationship starts with account opening — one of the most regulated touchpoints in banking. Banks must verify identity, assess risk, screen against sanctions and PEP lists, and document every step.
For most institutions, the tension between speed and compliance is managed through manual workarounds: checklists, email follow-ups and siloed verification tools. The result is slow for customers and resource-intensive for operations teams.
Sky GenAI handles the document-intensive steps of account opening in real time — onboarding customers faster, with consistent KYC controls applied at every stage.
Speed and compliance pull in opposite directions when handled manually.
Identity documents, proof of address and financial information arrive through multiple channels in inconsistent formats, requiring manual sorting.
Without automated controls, the depth and quality of KYC checks depend heavily on individual analysts — variability regulators increasingly scrutinize.
Manual review and back-and-forth over missing or invalid documents extend onboarding cycles and increase drop-off rates.
Sanctions lists, PEP databases and adverse media must be checked systematically — hard to scale manually across high volumes.
Real-time verification and screening from submission to audit-ready record.
Applicant documents are submitted at the point of onboarding — initiating a real-time verification sequence with no manual pre-sorting or routing.
Identity data is extracted and cross-checked across all documents — names, dates, document numbers and issuing authorities — flagging inconsistencies before an analyst sees the file.
Each applicant is screened in real time against sanctions lists, PEP databases and adverse media — with results documented in the KYC file and exceptions routed to compliance.
A fully structured, traceable KYC record is generated for every customer and pushed to core banking systems — ready for inspection without extra preparation.
Lower operational cost across every customer segment.
Automated validation and screening eliminate the manual steps that slow account opening — faster responses and higher completion rates.
Compliance checks are applied consistently across every application, removing analyst-level variability and reducing regulatory exposure.
Straight-through processing for clean files frees compliance teams to focus on genuine exceptions and higher-risk cases.
Systematic, real-time screening across all required databases ensures no applicant bypasses regulatory checks.
