KYC and AML Software in Durham

Identity and anti-money-laundering checks for Durham firms in the regulated sector. The Money Laundering Regulations require a risk-based approach, which means the software must let you apply proportionate scrutiny — a system running the same checks on everyone is failing the requirement in both directions at once.

Why this comes up

The problem

Onboarding checks are done manually against documents emailed in, screening is a periodic spreadsheet exercise, and evidencing the approach to a supervisor would take weeks.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Risk assessment implemented so due diligence scales with the actual risk
  • Identity verification chosen for your customer base, including those poorly served by it
  • Sanctions and politically exposed person screening, with ongoing monitoring
  • Beneficial ownership established for corporate customers, which is the harder case
  • Alerts triaged sensibly, since volume without triage means nothing is examined
  • Records retained for the required period, evidencing what was checked and when

Working in Durham

North East

Durham's economy is dominated by its university and cathedral, so the commercial base is small and much of the local demand comes from spinouts and suppliers attached to the institutions rather than from independent industry.

Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones.

KYC and AML Software in Durham — common questions

What does risk-based actually require?
That you assess the money laundering risk your business faces and apply due diligence proportionate to it — enhanced measures where risk is higher, simplified where genuinely lower. Uniform checks applied to everyone are both a compliance failure and a poor use of resource.
How accurate is automated verification?
Good for customers with standard documents and a conventional footprint, and worse for recent arrivals, older people and those with limited credit history. Excluding them is a fairness problem as well as a commercial one, so a manual route must exist and be usable.
What about screening false positives?
They dominate. Name-based sanctions and PEP screening generates far more matches than genuine hits, and systems producing untriaged alerts result in a queue nobody works. Tuning, and a documented process for clearing matches, is what makes screening meaningful.
What must we not do?
Tell the customer you have made a suspicious activity report. Tipping off is a criminal offence, and the software should support the reporting process without creating customer-facing traces of it. That constraint needs designing in rather than remembered by whoever handles the case.
Do you work with businesses across County Durham?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North East, including Durham and the surrounding County Durham area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Durham businesses do you usually work with?
Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Tourism & Heritage, Public Sector, Retail and Research.
Do you cover the areas around Durham?
Yes — we work throughout North East, including Newcastle, Sunderland, York. Durham is an urban area of roughly 70,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Durham region rather than the city boundary alone.
