Law change allows credit reporting information to be used for identity verification

Changes to the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act, and the Privacy Act, allow the use and disclosure of credit reporting information for the purpose of identity verification. The Australian Banking & Finance Law Bulletin recently published an article from Veda's Head of Legal and Compliance, Olga Ganopolsky, discussing the changes and their implications.

Get your customer relationships off to a great start, instantly

 

The growth of online transactions is changing the way businesses operate - and how your customers interact with your business. Staying competitive means meeting your customer's expectations. In an online environment that means a quick, easy and streamlined experience. Applying for a product or service online shouldn't mean manually printing a form and taking it to a bank or post office for identification. And if it does your customers will go elsewhere.

 

Your customers want a streamlined, instantaneous experience.  In most cases when you apply for an account online you first need to complete the form and then take it into a branch or Australia Post for an identity check. Not surprisingly typically only half of your potential customers complete the application process - a significant lost opportunity for your business.
