CHICAGO - Californer -- KYC2020 LLC, a leading provider of global Sanctions, PEP, and Adverse Media screening solutions for Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance, today announced a new partnership with First Nations Bank of Canada (FNBC), Canada's only Indigenous-led national bank.
This collaboration integrates KYC2020's AI-powered screening and decisioning capabilities into FNBC's compliance operations, enhancing the bank's ability to detect, assess, and mitigate financial crime risks. By leveraging KYC2020's advanced Sanctions, Politically Exposed Persons (PEP), and Adverse Media Screening tools, FNBC will gain increased efficiency and accuracy across its AML processes, reducing false positives and improving the speed and confidence of AML compliance.
Founded in 1996, First Nations Bank of Canada provides comprehensive personal and business banking services to Indigenous and non-Indigenous customers across the country. With branches and community banking centers located primarily in Indigenous communities, the bank's mission is to support self-sufficiency and nation-building through inclusive, responsible financial services.
