How to Design Effective, Risk-Driven Onboarding Flows
A joint report from Fintrail and Jumio on how to build an effective onboarding flow with the right type and right number of onboarding controls.
Customers expect to be able to open accounts in minutes while firms need to capture all of the information required to assess the risk of the customer.
Some checks are required by regulations, whilst others can be deployed on a risk-based approach. The key to effective onboarding is to get the balance right between hard-and-fast regulatory compliance and a seamless and intuitive user experience.
Practical insights from Fintechs across the FinTech FinCrime Exchange:
67% of respondents said they risk assessed customers on a dynamic basis throughout the onboarding flow.
56% of respondents said improvements were still needed in their onboarding flows to get the balance right between risk mitigation and operational effectiveness/user experience.
