Notes​

  • The length of incorporation is a risk factor in customer due diligence - newly established companies often represent higher risk than those with longer operating histories.
  • This information should be consistent with company registration documents and incorporation certificates.
  • Different length of incorporation ranges may trigger different levels of due diligence or verification requirements.
  • This information is often used in conjunction with financial statements and business track record to assess the stability and legitimacy of the business.
  • Newly incorporated entities may require enhanced monitoring during the initial business relationship period.
  • The length of incorporation is typically verified through company registration documents or incorporation certificates.
  • This field is only applicable to company or legal entity customers, not individuals.
