First AML, a leading provider of AML technology, has joined forces with Know Your Customer, a global business verification specialist, to improve compliance processes for firms operating across borders. Their partnership offers a unified approach to KYB, KYC, and AML that enhances both speed and security.
The collaboration sees Know Your Customer’s registry data embedded directly into First AML’s Source platform. This allows clients to view real-time information from over 140 national registries, automate the mapping of corporate ownership structures, and instantly access official documents—without needing to switch tools.
“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.”
As regulatory expectations mount, businesses are seeking smarter ways to verify entities globally. The new integration simplifies international compliance, reduces manual workloads, and helps firms apply consistent standards wherever they operate.
“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 integrated solution is particularly beneficial to cross-border firms in finance, law, and advisory services. It supports faster decision-making and smoother onboarding while upholding the integrity of compliance workflows.
In a tightening regulatory climate, this alliance delivers a robust and future-ready toolkit for modern compliance professionals.
