Who are you doing business with? A simple question with a complex answer

The term “Entity Verification” can mean different things to different people. Perhaps it brings to mind beneficial ownership, identity checks, or third-party risk management. Regardless, Entity Verification is the bedrock for understanding who you are doing business with.

We are pleased to welcome back guest, Paul Nola, Partner at Context Consulting, for this episode of Moody’s Talks: KYC Decoded. Paul walks us through the findings of Moody’s latest study on Entity Verification. In addition to sharing how the study was conducted and some of the results of the report, Paul and host, Alex Pillow, discuss common themes that emerged, such as:

  • Why the time is now to be ramping up Entity Verification programs
  • Challenges that can make Entity Verification difficult to implement
  • The downstream benefits of a strong Entity Verification foundation
  • The need for proper and robust data governance
  • How AI is being used to make Entity Verification scale in a quick, reliable way
  • The elusive ‘golden record’ - a single view of a data entity
