Humorous Stories and Lessons Learned
The Case of the Missing Passports: A bank was onboarding a new corporate client and requested passports from the company's directors. However, the passports were nowhere to be found. It turned out that the directors had accidentally left their passports in a photocopying machine at another meeting. The bank had to delay the onboarding process until the passports were retrieved, teaching the importance of double-checking documentation before submitting it.
The Customer with a Million Names: A financial institution was conducting KYC on a high-net-worth individual and discovered that the person had multiple aliases in different jurisdictions. The bank had to spend significant time investigating the customer's true identity and the reasons behind the use of aliases. This incident underlined the need for robust due diligence procedures to uncover potential fraud or money laundering risks.
The Political Exposure Surprise: A company was onboarding a new client and conducted KYC checks on the company's ultimate beneficial owners. To their surprise, they discovered that one of the owners was a politician in a high-risk jurisdiction. The company had to reassess the client's risk profile and implement enhanced monitoring measures to comply with anti-money laundering regulations. This incident highlighted the importance of considering political exposure factors in KYC assessments.
