Client ID Verification
Beta feature: Client ID verification is currently in Beta and is only available to relevant users.
If you wish to get access to this screen, please contact your Account Manager and request access to the Client ID Verification Beta in Firm Verify.
Your firm can now verify an Individual or Sole Trader client's identity and screen them against AML, sanctions, PEP and adverse media databases without leaving Firm Verify. The client submits their ID through the secure BGL Verify portal, and the results are returned to their record.
- For further information, see the Client ID Verification article.

| 2 | Choose KYC - ID & AML Check, KYC Advanced (adds adverse news) or KYC Biometric (adds a face scan), and the number of ID sources. |
| 3 | Select Proceed. The client is emailed a request and the status changes to Pending. You can void a pending request from its Actions menu. |
