Coinfirm is announcing the release of Entity Due Diligence in the effort to create a safer blockchain ecosystem.
Entity Due Diligence (Entity DD) provides detailed information about legal entities operating in the blockchain ecosystem, predominantly Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) such as cryptocurrency exchanges.
Information provided includes, amongst others:
- Overall risk
- Business activity nature
- Licensing and authorisation information
- Countries of identified activity
- AML and KYC information
- Known negative news
- Services and products offered
Available on Coinfirm’s AML Platform, Entity DD allows for easy and fast checking of the risks associated with a specific entity. Coinfirm is perpetually enriching useful databases for compliance by screening VASPs, such as searching for negative news information and reviewing the Know Your Customer (KYC) processes of the said VASPs, to help our ecosystem understand the exact risks associated with doing business with a given organisation.
Entity risk scores are included, based on known risk indicators, as well as a number of useful and unique on-chain and off-chain data points.
Entity DD was created with those seeking information about entities from the blockchain industry in mind, such as: compliance officers, investors, regulators, and those needing to understand the risks related to a given VASP.
As of today, information on 3,600+ unique entities are available, with more added daily.
Now, users of the AML Platform are able to create 5 different types of reports for streamlined compliance: Enhanced and Standard AML Risk Reports, Liquidity Pool Reports, Transaction Reports and Entity Due Diligence.
