Request, view, and manage compliance checks for your LPs on Carta and keep your fund protected.
As regulatory scrutiny increases worldwide, Know Your Customer (KYC) has become a critical step in maintaining compliance and building trust with investors. Badly managed KYC can leave funds at risk of asset freezes and financial penalties.
Carta’s new KYC as a Service (KYCaaS) provides users with streamlined compliance tools built into the fund admin platform. You can now initiate KYC checks, review investor statuses, and ensure continuous monitoring in one place, with zero manual lift.
By transforming a once-painful process into a seamless part of your workflow, KYCaaS empowers GPs and compliance teams to move faster, onboard LPs with more confidence, and provide a professional investor experience.
A smarter way to launch and manage KYC
KYCaaS replaces ad hoc tools and disconnected workflows with a centralized, real-time dashboard that visualizes the status of all LPs. See who’s been verified, manage periodic reviews, and review ongoing screening. Risk scores for each LP are clearly explained, associated LP documents are available for download, and customer due diligence (CDD) reports can be exported for each entity.
The in-app solution reduces back-and-forth with investors and relieves your internal teams of the administrative burden of KYC collection and document management.
Global, scalable compliance
Carta’s KYCaaS gives customers a scalable identity verification solution that adapts to wherever your fund and LPs are based. From U.S. funds to those with international investors or based overseas, the tool operates across jurisdictions to give you peace of mind.
Remove friction from fundraising, onboard investors faster, and position your firm to LPs as trustworthy and professional with Carta KYCaaS.
