Why it matters
The rising bar for KYC compliance under European regulations including eIDAS trust services standards and new strategic infrastructure expectations—stems from cases where weak identity verification enabled money laundering or fraud. Fintech and digital payment providers in the EU are facing tougher enforcement and fines when KYC fails to catch high risk actors, prompting severe reputational and financial damage, including license withdrawal.
