Verified

We help B2B businesses in the Nordics to simplify and automate their important business processes and workflows. For compliance and improved efficiency. We provide a digital platform where the regulatory industries can manage their whole AML (Anti Money Laundering) process in one workflow. From onboarding new customers, including all necessary data controls, to continuous monitoring and live checks of ongoing business relations. Risk assessment and risk modeling and audit-proof documentation is also important part of the flow. The AML flow is supported by our extensive and secure eSigning and eID integrations - to make the workflow smooth and efficient. Verified's journey began in Sweden in 2012. The first version of the platform for the Swedish market was launched in 2013. Since then, development has been rapid, and with a customer-centric approach, we made it one of the market-leading players in the Nordic region. Today our digital workflows serve more than 2500 customers, with the major part of them in the regulatory industries. What distinguishes the team and the platform is the high level of technical competence, the customer-centric approach, and a modern tech stack that makes Verified unique!
