Diligence that never goes stale

Periodic review assumes nothing changes between cycles. Perpetual KYB watches the registry, the ownership and the lists — and reviews only what moved.

Why this matters here

A file reviewed in January is an assumption by March.

Directors resign, ownership moves, a UBO becomes a PEP. Periodic review catches all of it eventually — on a date chosen by a calendar rather than by the change itself.

Calendar-driven

review dates

The cycle is set by the filing month, not by the risk.

Re-read

from scratch every time

The previous review left no trail, so the next one starts at zero.

Silent changes

nobody is told

A director resigns and the file stays green until the next cycle.

The workflow, step by step

Scroll to advance
  1. Step 01 The baseline file

    Ownership, directors and control resolved once, with each source and date recorded.

  2. Step 02 Watch the sources, not the calendar

    Registry filings, list publications and adverse media checked continuously against the baseline.

  3. Step 03 Only changes raise a review

    A director resignation or an ownership move triggers a targeted review, not a full re-read.

  4. Step 04 The file is always current

    Every field carries its own last-verified date, so the age of the answer is visible.

What you answer to

What the obligation actually says

No regime mandates a twelve-month cycle. They ask for diligence proportionate to risk, kept current — which is a weaker requirement to meet continuously than periodically.

Case study · Wealth

A private bank halved its periodic review effort

Reviews restarted from scratch because the previous decision left nothing behind. Watching the sources instead of the calendar turned the cycle into a check on what changed.

FAQ

Before you ask us

Does this replace periodic review?

It replaces the calendar. Many firms keep a light annual attestation on top, which is a much smaller exercise once the file is current.

Which registries are covered?

National company registries where they publish, plus your own filings and documents as sources of record.

What counts as a change?

Directors, ownership percentages, control, address, status, and any list or adverse media movement on a linked person.

How is a stale field visible?

Every field carries its own last-verified date, so the age of an answer is on the record rather than inferred.
