KYC Compliance in South Africa: What does it entail?

KYC compliance in South Africa refers to verifying customers' identity and assessing their risk levels to prevent financial crimes such as money laundering, terrorist financing, and fraud. The Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations in South Africa require financial institutions and other regulated entities to gather and verify certain information about their customers.

When discussing KYC compliance in South Africa, we must start with the Financial Intelligence Centre Act (FICA). FICA is the primary legislation governing anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing in South Africa. It exists to establish measures to prevent money laundering and the financing of terrorist activities and to protect the integrity of the South African financial system.
