Entity User Due Diligence involves the process of verifying the identity and assessing the risk profile of institutional clients or corporate users of financial services. This procedure extends beyond individual identity checks to scrutinize beneficial ownership, organizational structure, and business activities. It is a critical component of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing frameworks. This process ensures compliance with regulatory standards.
