Also used to mitigate risks to the company’s image and reputation, Corporate Compliance programs aim to maintain the company’s compliance with legal requirements, regulations and guidelines, both external and internal, applicable according to the area of activity and activities performed. To do this, the company must know its customers, partners, suppliers and employees. These processes have different names in the market, and are often referenced by the terms KYC (Know Your Customer), KYP (Know Your Partner), KY (Know Your Employee), KYE (Know Your Employee), but are basically associated with the same activity , the realization of backgrounds checks.
