Reykjavik, Iceland -- (SBWire) -- 07/28/2022 --AML compliance is increasingly becoming a priority for North American companies, from well-established institutions to some of the most innovative start-ups. In fact, while there are concerns in other parts of the world that the newest businesses are those with the least protection in place, that's not the case in the US and Canada. A new report from Sumsub has identified that more than half of crypto currency firms are planning to increase their identity verification budgets this year, with AML compliance software at the top of the must-purchase list. 200 companies took part in the survey, which also found that 80% of crypto businesses currently use automated AML solutions.

AML compliance software is a simple way to ensure that businesses stay on the right side of the law. For 55% of those that took part in the survey, staying compliant with AML regulations was the main focus. However, there were other objectives for increasing verification budgets across 2022, including helping to build trust and credibility with customers, partners and collaborators and helping to protect an organization against fraud. Automating verification is one of the simplest and most obvious steps that any business can take when it comes to ensuring balancing compliance and customer service, as it's not only more effective but faster than manual processes too.
