KYB might not be the buzziest acronym in fintechâbut maybe it should be. In this episode, weâre joined by Will Lawrence, CEO of Greenlite, and Kurt Ruppel, CTO and Co-founder of Middesk, two leaders rethinking how financial institutions identify and monitor business customers. We cover the evolution from manual checks to AI-powered automation, the difference between KYC and KYB, and why ongoing monitoring is the next big frontier. Plus, Will and Kurt share how theyâre navigating risk, regulation, and real-world AI implementationâfrom OCC audits to sanctions alertsâand where they see the biggest opportunities for innovation in compliance and fraud prevention.
