Financial crime, sanctions, payment behavior and supply bottlenecks: Do you know your business partners?

Collaborating with existing and, above all, new companies makes your business attractive and promises growth and profitability. However, in our globally interconnected world, this also presents many challenges.

While you may have known your business partners personally in the past, collaboration, especially at the international level, is becoming increasingly complex. Do you know exactly how your suppliers' and customers' businesses are structured? For example, do you know their supply chains down to the smallest detail?

The answers to these questions are not only of legal importance – they are also crucial for the long-term success of your company. A comprehensive due diligence process for business partners is therefore no longer optional; it is essential today.

Automated KYB procedures: Improve data quality and reduce business risks

To gain clarity about your new and existing business partners, up-to-date and comprehensive data is essential. For the sake of cost-efficiency and scalability of your business, data verification must be digital and automated.

The 3 phases of business partner due diligence

1. Screening of new business partners

Before collaborating with new partners, the following risks should be examined:

  • Country risk
  • Industry risks
  • Sanction risks
  • Money laundering risks
  • Terrorist financing risks
  • Risks in the supply chain

2. Updating existing partners

Information from your existing partners should be updated regularly to identify new risks early. In particular, the following should be checked:

  • Changes to master data
  • Negative news
  • Changed risks
  • New legal situation

3. Review based on events

If a short-term event occurs, you should react immediately. Reacting too slowly to new circumstances can be detrimental to business.

Changes require an immediate assessment of the risk of sanctions or new risks in the supply chain.

The complexity lies in recognizing relevant changes in a timely manner.
