Ongoing CDD for companies and individuals
Customer due diligence does not stop after onboarding.
A company that looked low risk last quarter may later appear in a sanctions update, become linked to adverse media, change its officers, or require a refreshed review. An individual customer, director, shareholder or related person may also need to be checked again as data changes over time.
Kyboa helps teams move from one-off screening to maintained compliance records. Create an entity record, keep the key information in one place, run screenings from that maintained record, and configure recurring monitoring to support ongoing due diligence.
Why entity monitoring matters
Manual follow-ups create gaps
Many teams screen a customer at onboarding, then rely on manual reminders, spreadsheets or ad-hoc reviews to check the same customer again later. Records become outdated, follow-up screenings are easy to miss, reports are stored separately, and teams cannot easily see what changed between one review and the next.
Maintained CDD records keep reviews connected
Kyboa is designed to make ongoing due diligence more structured. The maintained entity record becomes the working CDD record, while each screening and report remains a historical record of what was checked at a specific point in time.
Quick screening or maintained entity record?
Quick screening
Use quick screening when you need a point-in-time check on a company or individual without creating a maintained record.
This is useful for one-off checks, early triage, ad-hoc compliance questions or testing a name before creating a customer record.
Entity records
Use entity records when the subject needs to be maintained, reviewed, refreshed or monitored over time.
Entity records can hold names, aliases, identifiers, addresses, related people, internal notes, monitoring status, screening history and change history.
Recurring monitoring and alerts
Monitoring runs recurring screenings from the maintained entity record. When the entity becomes due, Kyboa creates a normal entity-linked screening and runs the same screening workflow used for manual entity screenings.
Recurring cadence
Production monitoring cadences are designed for practical compliance workflows, including weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual review cycles.
Configured alerts
Alerts can be configured to run off, always, or only when specific changes are found compared with the previous monitoring baseline.
Changes to review
Monitoring can help surface new sanctions or watchlist candidates, risk rating changes and new adverse media URLs.
Monitoring does not automatically approve, reject or escalate a customer. It gives teams a repeatable process and a clearer view of what changed since the previous monitoring baseline.
Screening history, imports and audit evidence
Screening history
Each entity keeps a linked history of screenings, reports, risk ratings, confidence levels and monitoring activity.
Existing customer lists
CSV import can help teams move from spreadsheets into maintained entity records and repeatable monitoring workflows.
Audit-ready evidence
Kyboa helps show that due diligence was not just performed once, but maintained through a structured and repeatable process.
Entity monitoring supports ongoing due diligence, but it does not remove the need for human review. Monitoring results can include false positives, a clean monitoring run does not guarantee absence of risk, and users remain responsible for reviewing results and deciding what action is required.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about entity records, recurring monitoring, alert rules, screening history and ongoing CDD workflows.
Is entity monitoring the same as continuous real-time screening? Show answer Hide answer
No. Kyboa uses configurable recurring monitoring cadences such as weekly, monthly, quarterly or annually. It is designed for practical ongoing CDD and periodic review workflows, not real-time transaction monitoring.
What can trigger a monitoring alert? Show answer Hide answer
In change-based alert mode, alerts focus on new sanctions or watchlist candidate matches, risk rating changes and new adverse media URLs compared with the previous completed monitoring baseline for the same entity.
Does monitoring use a different screening process? Show answer Hide answer
No. Monitoring reuses the same entity-linked screening workflow used for manual entity screenings. This keeps reports, audit records and review behaviour consistent.
Does monitoring consume screening allowance? Show answer Hide answer
Yes. Monitoring creates normal screening records and uses your monthly screening allowance in the same way as other screenings.
Can I monitor both companies and individuals? Show answer Hide answer
Yes. Kyboa supports maintained records for both company KYB and individual KYC workflows.
