Industry Dynamics

Growth Drivers
The e-KYC market has observed extensive developments in the last few decades supported by various factors such as the stringent government regulations to prevent money laundering and financial fraud and the rising adoption of digital payment modes. For instance, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), it has prioritized the battle against money laundering and terrorism financing. Among the objectives of this initiative are to defend the reliability and safety of the international financial system, cut off terrorists' access to resources, and make it more difficult for criminals to benefit from their illicit actions. The IMF's one-of-a-kind combination of universal membership, monitoring functions, and financial sector expertise makes it a crucial and necessary component of international attempts to prevent terrorist financing.

In addition, the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 (AMLA) has been Congress's most significant anti-money laundering bill for centuries. Among it has many regulations, this law includes increased whistleblower benefits and protections, the creation of a beneficial data ownership to be incorporated by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). AMLA 2020 updated the legislation to require the "Secretary of Treasury" to "must" pay awards to the whistleblowers to have transparency in the system. Still, the legislation does not include a prize "floor," which means whistleblowers may only get a token award.

Furthermore, expanding AI and machine applications in evaluating huge amounts of data created by digital currency transactions and reducing false alerts are projected to fuel e-KYC demand in the future years. More opportunities for digital money and digital payments from the central bank have emerged due to technological improvement. With the advent of interconnected devices, cloud computing, and AI, the market for e-KYC is expected to gain traction in the next years. The growing requirement to limit illegal use of credentials and violations of conduct is projected to fuel growth in the e-KYC market throughout the forecast period.
