SIX Group selects Know Your Customer to strengthen supplier due diligence

SIX Group is the fintech organisation operating the Swiss Stock Exchange and providing the overall infrastructure for the Swiss financial centre.

By utilising Know Your Customer’s due diligence platform, SIX Group is looking to increase the accuracy of its risk calculations on suppliers that provide services and products to companies that are members of the Swiss exchange ecosystem. The Know Your Customer platform – which provides direct connection to official company registries and instant identification of Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBOs) – will enable SIX Group to investigate the company structure of all its existing and prospective suppliers, further reducing the risk related to money laundering and financing of terrorism.
