Cheqm KYC & Wwft – Data-driven risk insight for compliance teams
Financial institutions, payment services, and government organizations are increasingly coming under scrutiny due to shortcomings in their Wwft processes. Recent hefty fines and stricter regulatory controls demonstrate that a thorough, well-founded, and data-driven KYC approach is no longer a luxury, but a necessity.
Cheqm supports organizations that must comply with Wwft, KYC, and CDD obligations with a powerful solution that makes current and historical information from various public data sources accessible. This allows Risk & Compliance professionals to more quickly identify risks, perform analyses, and ensure files comply with regulatory requirements.
Data-driven Wwft risk assessment
Many organizations spend significant resources on manual checks by analysts who must collect, review, and record information from public sources. The Cheqm platform automates this process by presenting all relevant data in one place—current, historical, and international. With a single search, users gain immediate insight into:
official registrations and public mentions
(inter)national business information
legal and administrative changes
relevant events and signals
historical developments and status changes

International data portal for Wwft checks
Cheqm offers an international data portal that helps organizations identify Wwft risks early on. By combining public data from multiple countries in a single, transparent environment, performing KYC and CDD checks becomes significantly more efficient. External data is playing an increasingly important role in this, especially as financial crime becomes increasingly international and complex.
The information available through Cheqm can—after internal verification—be directly incorporated into the client due diligence process within the CDD process. This provides Risk & Compliance staff with the relevant context within seconds to create a well-founded risk assessment. This allows valuable analyst time to be used where it's needed most: on files with increased risk or complex structures.
Cross-border risk insight
Crime doesn't stop at the border—and neither does Cheqm. Our cross-border solution simplifies international screening by:
international company and director data
cross-border public registrations
to bundle historical legal and organizational changes into a streamlined workflow.
This exposes risks that would otherwise remain hidden in fragmented sources across multiple countries.
Seamless integration with your customer research
The Cheqm platform supports the complete KYC/CDD process:
identity check within legal frameworks
file formation in accordance with Wwft requirements
automatic recording of consulted sources
clear audit trail for internal and external controls
integration via API into existing compliance or CRM systems
This makes client due diligence faster, more consistent and demonstrably in accordance with the guidelines.
