Executive Summary

In the age of digitisation, lending and other financial services have been taken online. And along with these, financial crimes have also found a new playground. Fraudulent digital lending apps and unlawful harassment by seedy lenders has already drawn the attention of the RBI. The need for comprehensive KYC checks by digital lenders, in this context, is even more pronounced as it mitigates instances of financial crimes, including fraud, and establishes credibility.

This e-book aims to help fintech players understand and implement a seamless KYC process from a regulatory and business-operations lens.
