London, UK – Shufti Pro has launched Video KYC service to facilitate businesses in digitizing their KYC process through a video call. Users and customers can get their identity verified through a video call, saving banks and businesses cost and time. A specific video KYC model where banks can use their own KYC expert for live verification, is also offered keeping in view the recent regulatory developments for banks and businesses in India.

In terms of the provisions of Prevention of Money-Laundering Act (2002) and the Prevention of Money-Laundering (Maintenance of Records) Rules 2005, that are amended from time to time by the Government of India, Regulated Entities (REs) are now required to follow certain customer identification procedures while undertaking a transaction either by establishing an account-based relationship or otherwise and monitor their transactions.

REs shall take steps to implement the provisions of the aforementioned Act and Rules, including operational instructions issued in pursuance of such amendment(s). For this purpose, Indian regulation introduced Video KYC also known as Video-based Customer Identification Process (V-CIP), which plays a crucial role. It is a method of customer identification by an official of the business by undertaking seamless, secure, real-time, consent-based audio-visual interaction with the customer to obtain identification information including the documents required for CDD purpose and to ascertain the veracity of the information furnished by the customer.

In light of these recent amendments, Indian businesses are required to carry out video KYC through their own employees. Shufti Pro offers three different Video KYC models one of which is the best fit for Indian businesses that can assist them to comply with regulations by integrating this service for customer verification. Video KYC service offers personalized services as per compliance guidelines for Indian businesses. The service will facilitate businesses in India for client on-boarding, user registration, processing high profile transactions, and re-verification of existing users. Shufti Pro’s Video KYC service also ensures regulatory compliance with the RBI guidelines and replaces the outdated authentication mechanism.

Shufti Pro designs its services keeping in view the needs of businesses and end-users.  Speaking about the benefits of the new service, Victor Fredung, CEO of Shufti Pro said:

The process for video KYC can be performed from the comfort of your home. All you need is a laptop, smartphone, or tablet with a working internet connection.
