More than 1000 crypto companies have applied to Cashaa, mostly looking for a bank account and credit/debit card processing facility. Cashaa had turned down 80% of the applications because the businesses did not understand AML and CFT rules. Based on the experience of dealing with over a thousand crypto companies, Cashaa realized that most of the founders working in the blockchain or DLT space are are young, dynamic entrepreneurs, full of innovative ideas who mainly focus on engineering, but are lacking specialized compliance knowledge.
Cashaa’s “Crypto Business/Broker” account has coded policies and systems to mitigate the risk of the business being used for money laundering or terrorist financing. Cashaa has integrated the KYC system for individual and corporate entities within the account for due diligence of each sender/receiver when doing transactions. Three levels of the KYC system will do intrusive due diligence, known as enhanced due diligence when dealing with customers who may present a higher money laundering/terrorist finance risk, also including PEP (Politically Exposed Person) checks. Cashaa’s systems, together with its reliable banking partners, will be doing the ongoing monitoring of all the transactions happening to make sure they are consistent with the business’ knowledge of the customer and the customer’s business and risk profile.
“We have put our experience of dealing with hundreds of crypto businesses and extended our capabilities through technology to our customers to give them the freedom to innovate with minimum worrying about the new FCA rules or 5AMLD.” — Kumar Gaurav, CEO Cashaa
