KYC for Insurance: Policyholder Verification & Fraud Prevention
Ghost brokers, fronting, and premium fraud are insurance-specific risks that standard KYC stacks often miss.
Insurance has unique KYC requirements beyond standard ID&V. Ghost brokers, fronting fraud, and premium diversion all require checks that go further than a passport upload.
Insurance-specific risk signals
- Ghost brokers selling policies through unlicensed channels
- Fronting: a low-risk driver listed as the primary user
- Premium diversion: payments routed through third-party accounts
- Beneficiary changes shortly before a claim
What regulators expect
EU AML directives now apply to life insurance and certain non-life products above thresholds. The UK and US states have similar requirements for high-value policies.
