Refinitiv has introduced Qual-ID, a new solution designed to help the financial institutions tackle identity frauds and financial crimes.
The new offering is developed in collaboration with Trulioo under a partnership announced earlier this year.

Qual-ID combines Trulioo’s digital identity network and Refinitiv’s World-Check Risk Intelligence in a point of access.
Financial institutions can use the solution to comply with the Know-Your-Customer (KYC) and anti-money laundering (AML) regulations. It allows clients to authenticate the identities against trusted data sources and carry out anti-impersonation checks.
Qual-ID also verifies identities against regulatory and financial risk including sanctions, PEPs and adverse media.
Refinitiv managing director of the risk business Phil Cotter said: “Financial services are in the midst of a digital identity revolution, which is being driven by a host of inter-connected factors such as regulations mandating enhanced privacy and consumers who demand more choice and flexibility.
