Strong Know Your Customer 2017 - Why Reputation Monitoring is Key to a Strong Know Your Customer (KYC) Program

Description:
A high number of complaints may suggest your business customer is engaging in Unfair, Deceptive or Abusive Acts and Practices (UDAAP). Harmful businesses don’t disclose a poor or declining reputation, yet this can signal that your business customer is engaged in anti-consumer behavior. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is currently very focused on UDAAP, and is even targeting organizations that are not officially regulated by them. In addition, the Panama Papers leak is a recent example demonstrating how adverse media monitoring is an important tool to alert you about business customers that may be engaged in activities that don’t align to your risk profile.
