Remember the last time you tried to open a bank account or get a loan? The endless forms, the photocopies, and the waiting game. That's traditional KYC (Know Your Customer) in a nutshell. It's a painful process for both the customer and the business, but it's essential for fighting financial crime.
But what if there was a better way? At Zeeh, we believe the future of finance isn’t about more paperwork, but smarter data. By leveraging open banking, we’re not just speeding up KYC, we’re transforming it into a seamless, secure, and strategic advantage for any financial institution.
The Old Way: A Painful Process
For years, KYC has been a major bottleneck. Financial institutions have relied on manual, document-based checks to verify identity, a process that is:
Slow and Inefficient
Onboarding a new customer can take days, leading to high drop-off rates and lost revenue.
Prone to Error
Human data entry is a common source of mistakes, increasing risk and compliance issues.
Costly
The operational overhead of manual review, storage, and retrieval of documents is significant.
This outdated approach makes it difficult for financial institutions to scale and innovate, and it creates a frustrating experience for you, the customer.
The New Way: A Modern, Data-Driven Approach with Zeeh
This is where Zeeh steps in. Our modern financial data infrastructure, powered by open banking solutions, bridges the gap between old processes and new possibilities.
