In the decade since the financial crisis, regulatory scrutiny of financial institutions’ (FI) knowledge
of their customers has significantly increased. Stringent requirements for onboarding clients and
continuing due diligence obligations have increased the pressure on FIs, forcing them to focus
on building a comprehensive, single view of their clients. The purpose: to understand the risk
associated with doing business with them and to keep on top of reporting requirements.
Thomson Reuters has developed a set of services and platforms that support you in tackling the
challenges posed by this increased regulatory environment. We deliver to FIs consistent, accurate
information and a comprehensive workflow platform. These bring increased efficiency and cost
savings to their operational processes. We also enable FIs’ counterparties to streamline the
sharing of their KYC and regulatory compliance documents through a secure online platform.
Our combined award-winning assets of 350,000 built KYC records, 1.25 million actively managed
legal entity profiles and database of 7 million legal entities ensure Thomson Reuters firmly sets
the standard in client due diligence solutions.
“Despite significant investment by banks, average onboarding times are continuing to rise, from 28 days in 2016 to 32 days in 2017, with a further 24% rise expected in the next 12 months”Thomson Reuters Global KYC Survey 2017

The challenges facing financial institutions require them to not only collect more data
and documents for their clients but also to ensure that the information they hold is accurate
and up to date.
Consequently, managing onboarding and regulatory reporting processes have become increasingly
time-consuming and complicated. They are also becoming more expensive due to increased
staffing requirements and larger technology infrastructure, with additional impacts to FIs’ frontline
due to the cost of delayed transactions.
The results of Thomson Reuters 2017 Global KYC Survey clearly demonstrate the increasing scale
and scope of due diligence tasks facing FIs.
Regulatory change is driving longer and more complex KYC processes. 60 percent of C-level executives
are dedicating more time and attention to KYC and client due diligence year-by-year. Businesses are
spending even more on technology systems for client onboarding and regulatory compliance.
Yet there is a lack of common international KYC standards and processes which is further
complicating the tasks at hand, exacerbating the challenges and costs that KYC involves.
4
Industry challenges
More than ever before, regulations such as the European Union (EU) 4th Anti-Money Laundering Directive (AML), the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID II), and the US Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) are forcing FIs to focus on building a comprehensive, single view of their clients to verify identity and map relationship networks.

Five key challenges facing FIs are:
Controlling headcount
FIs and their counterparties have had to increase staffing to
understand, implement and deliver due diligence processes
and information that ensures they are compliant with
increasingly stringent regulatory demands.
Streamlining operational processes
Increasing regulatory requirements, especially around client due
diligence and reporting, mean that FIs and their counterparties
struggle to control and drive down time and costs associated
with their processes. Collection and verification of client
documentation and legal entity data is increasingly burdensome
and time-consuming. In addition, due to inconsistent processes
and siloed internal structures, data collection and onboarding
related activities are often duplicated across different functions
within a firm.
Accessing and maintaining accurate information
Requirements for a more complete picture of clients and the
increasingly global nature of business mean that sourcing good
quality data across jurisdictions poses many challenges for FIs.
Identifying primary data sources across regions, then accessing
information can be time-consuming. Ensuring accuracy of
information is further exacerbated by the requirement to ensure
that data is continuously monitored and updated. Issues of
inaccurate and outdated internal records lead to increased time
and costs associated with internal reconciliation, checking,
validating and maintaining client legal entity data.
Complex and diverse regulatory requirements
Multiple, ever-changing and tighter regulatory requirements,
especially those involving jurisdictional variations, mean that
FIs are often under pressure to understand the changing detail
of what information they need to collect in order to be compliant
across each market and asset class.
Managing internal controls and data security
There is significant pressure on FIs to monitor their internal
controls and processes across their organization and to provide
evidence of robust internal audits to regulators and boards.
Assessing the extent to which control guidelines are being
adhered to or implemented can be difficult to monitor, especially
in large, complex organizations. As a result, firms are challenged
with ensuring that concerns such as data security and privacy
with respect to the collection and storage of client information
are managed and the overall governance of their operational
processes is sound.

Our industry-leading legal entity database of over 2.4 million entities covers multiple jurisdictions

numbers. Our Enhanced Data Service (EDS) provides additional data fields to help FIs to comply with
a range of regulations including Dodd-Frank, EMIR, FATCA and FCA transaction reporting.

Acquisitions and brand retirement
In March 2017 Thomson Reuters acquired Clarient and Avox. As a result we have conducted a full
integration to combine all of our best in class assets, which include services, data, platforms and
operational processes. This enables us to deliver a market-leading suite of KYC managed services,
legal entity data and document exchange solutions, which will expedite our customer due diligence
interactions and make it easier for them to conduct business and comply with regulation.
As part of this integration, certain brands and products have been retired in order to streamline
the services we offer and enhance the value we bring to our customers while retaining their flexibility.
Avox Managed Data Service and Enhanced Data Service
Avox Managed Data Service and Enhanced Data Service becomes Thomson Reuters Verified
Entity Data as a Service. However, the Managed Data Service and Enhanced Data Service
distinctions remain.
The Clarient Entity Hub
The Clarient Entity Hub platform has been retired whilst functionality has been integrated with the
Thomson Reuters Org ID portal. This creates a new single interface and an enhanced platform that
improves the experience for all users, consumers and providers alike, while maintaining security,
controls and permissions of the information distributed. This enhanced platform is branded
Thomson Reuters KYC as a Service.
Thomson Reuters Org ID becomes KYC as a Service and forms
the base for our KYC managed service
Clarient Base, PKYC, Full KYC product names have been retired. However, these services
offerings have been integrated into Thomson Reuters KYC as a Service and remain accessible
via the platform.
