Compliance with OJK's eKYC Process Requirements

Written by VIDA Partner Insight | May 15, 2023 3:30:05 PM

The Indonesian Financial Services Authority (OJK) established the eKYC (Electronic Know Your Customer) process as a compliance requirement to ensure that financial institutions can efficiently and accurately verify their customers' identities. The Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations seek to prevent money laundering, terrorism financing, and other illegal activities in the financial sector.

 

Businesses must comply with eKYC regulations to avoid potential legal and financial consequences, including license revocation, suspension, legal action, and monetary losses. In addition, non-compliance can harm a company's reputation and consumer confidence, both of which are difficult to reclaim once lost. Therefore, financial institutions and fintech players must take the necessary measures to ensure compliance.

 

The OJK has established eKYC implementation guidelines for financial institutions and fintech companies, addressing various aspects of the eKYC procedure, such as customer identification, verification, authentication, data privacy, and security. To comply with these guidelines, businesses must comprehensively understand the eKYC procedure and its associated regulatory requirements.
