KYC / Onboarding

Multi-agent KYC workflows involve sensitive PII, complex verification chains, and high-stakes decisions. Every step must be governed, every handoff audited, every decision explainable.

Typical KYC Workflow

Data Extraction Agent

Extract information from uploaded documents

Document Verification Agent

Verify document authenticity and validity

Identity Check Agent

Cross-reference against sanctions, PEP, adverse media

Risk Assessment Agent

Calculate composite risk score

Without Governance

Failure Modes in Ungoverned KYC

Multi-agent KYC systems create structural risks that traditional controls cannot address.

PII Extraction Leakage

Sensitive data passed between agents without sanitization

Privacy violations, regulatory fines

Decision Logic Opacity

Multi-agent decisions with no unified reasoning trail

Cannot explain approvals or rejections to regulators

Agent Conflict

Contradictory outputs between verification agents

Inconsistent decisions, compliance gaps

Audit Trail Gaps

Missing records between agent handoffs

Incomplete evidence for regulatory examination
