🔄
Repeated Document Requests
Clients frustrated by endless KYC processes. Every transaction requires fresh identity verification, damaging client relationships and operational efficiency.

Privacy Act Breach Risks

Compliance Costs Skyrocketing
Building AML/CTF programs from scratch. Staff training, systems, compliance officers - costs adding up with tight 6-month implementation window.
