First AML, a key player in the AML technology space, has revealed a strategic partnership with Know Your Customer, an international provider of business verification solutions. Together, they are setting a new benchmark for KYB, KYC, and AML practices in the global regulatory landscape.
Through this collaboration, First AML has embedded Know Your Customer’s registry technology directly into its Source platform. This integration gives users real-time access to business registry data from over 140 countries, enabling instant document retrieval, seamless verification of corporate hierarchies, and automated identification of ultimate beneficial owners—all within the same platform.
“This partnership enhances what our customers already experience through Source,” said Bion Behdin, CRO and Co-Founder of First AML. “By embedding Know Your Customer’s registry technology, we’ve strengthened our ability to automate KYB at scale, without adding complexity. It removes manual, fragmented steps from business verification, making onboarding faster, insights deeper and compliance more robust for firms operating across borders.”
The integration provides significant value to compliance professionals managing complex international due diligence. It supports the enforcement of uniform standards and eliminates fragmented workflows, making the verification process far more efficient.
“We are excited to work closely with First AML to provide financial and regulated businesses with a comprehensive business verification solution,” said Claus Christensen, CEO and Co-Founder of Know Your Customer. “Our robust expertise and expansive access to company registries worldwide, coupled with First AML’s innovative technology, will empower financial organisations to establish tailored business compliance rules that align seamlessly with their risk appetite and operational requirements.”
This powerful solution is designed for multinational firms across finance, law, and consulting sectors, offering speed and accuracy in onboarding while ensuring alignment with evolving compliance regulations.
As the risk of financial crime continues to rise, this timely integration equips businesses with smarter tools to stay ahead in an increasingly complex regulatory environment.
