KYB & Ownership

Process registry data, map multi-layer UBOs, and screen sanctions, PEP and adverse media using minimal company details to deliver a clear risk summary ready for onboarding.

What makes Ballerine’s KYB engine different

Global Coverage

Aggregated intelligence from multiple providers

Most KYB tools rely on a single data vendor. We aggregate multiple KYB and registry providers to ensure broad geographic coverage and stronger data reliability worldwide.
Ownership Clarity

Multi-layer ownership mapping

Uncover complex UBO structures of companies you onboard. When applicable, we:
  • Map direct and indirect shareholders
  • Trace ownership through multiple layers
  • Identify directors, authorized signatories, and key controllers
Structured Risk Summary

Risk clarity in seconds

Raw KYB data is overwhelming. We distill it into a quick executive summary with instant clarity on company status, sanctions, PEP, jurisdiction risk, ownership, and adverse media.
Connected to Your Portfolio

KYB is only one piece of the puzzle

Each check is added to the merchant profile, giving you a complete view of the business over time. View KYB results alongside underwriting, monitoring, and risk signals so every decision is made with full context.
