KYC Portal (KYCP) has formed a strategic partnership with StartKYC to introduce a new embedded AML screening capability, enhancing its existing compliance and client lifecycle management services.
The integration of StartKYC’s data engine into KYCP’s platform will allow clients to access real-time checks on politically exposed persons (PEPs), sanctions, and adverse media directly within the system. While KYCP already works with several screening providers, this partnership represents a major leap forward by offering instant, global access to essential compliance data—without minimum thresholds, contractual commitments, or lengthy integrations.
KYCP founder and CEO Kristoff Zammit Ciantar said, “I’m glad we managed to partner up with StartKYC. I believe there is a lot of room for growth for the both of us and this partnership only makes it more possible. The quality of the data that StartKYC provide together with the ability to seamlessly use this service within our product complements the overall concept of risk orchestration.”
The partnership merges two vital elements of the compliance ecosystem: KYCP’s risk orchestration technology and StartKYC’s global data intelligence. Together, they create a more holistic framework for organisations seeking to improve regulatory efficiency and risk management.
KYCP has established itself as a leading client lifecycle management system and one of the most advanced risk orchestration tools available, combining embedded outreach capabilities and a sophisticated configuration studio.
StartKYC, meanwhile, brings exceptional depth in compliance data analytics, with over one million profiles that include continuously updated PEP, sanctions, and adverse media data. Its approach involves gathering information from official and local sources across multiple languages to provide an accurate, real-time picture of individuals and entities.
The StartKYC database is continuously refreshed, monitoring global sanctions lists every 30 minutes and scanning over 10,000 media and regulatory sources for potential risks. This ensures clients receive up-to-date intelligence that supports faster, more reliable decision-making.
StartKYC co-founder Jean Borg said, “At StartKYC, our mission has always been to make AML screening easy, accurate, and accessible. Partnering with KYCP allows us to embed our screening engine directly within one of the most advanced risk orchestration platforms on the market, enabling instant PEP, sanctions, and adverse media checks with no minimums and full flexibility. We’re excited about this partnership and look forward to helping KYCP clients access smarter, faster, and more affordable screening than ever before.”
