Ongoing KYC Monitoring: Why Periodic Refresh Is Dead

Regulators across most major jurisdictions now expect ongoing, risk-based monitoring rather than periodic KYC refresh. The shift is overdue. A customer's risk profile can change in hours, not years.

Events that should trigger a re-check

• Sanctions or PEP list hits added after onboarding
• Sudden transaction volume or velocity changes
• Geo-IP changes inconsistent with the stated address
• Adverse media on the customer or their counterparties
• On-chain risk signals for crypto-active customers

How our ongoing KYC monitoring product works

Our ongoing KYC monitoring engine watches every customer continuously, debounces alerts, and surfaces only the ones a compliance analyst actually needs to action — with the full underlying KYC verification record one click away.

Avoiding alert fatigue

Tune thresholds per segment, suppress duplicate hits across lists, and route low-severity alerts to weekly digests instead of real-time queues.
