Enhanced due diligence

Enhanced due diligence (or EDD) is a KYC/customer due diligence process. It requires more detailed information on the counterparty when establishing a business relationship.

Enhanced due diligence goes beyond customer due diligence. It gathers information on the counterparty and assesses the level of risk. The process triggers in case risky patterns involving risky or high net-worth profiles (such as PEPs), or large transactions.
