Overview
What is KYC & AML Compliance?
KYC and AML compliance outsourcing involves delegating customer identity verification, sanctions screening, and transaction monitoring to trained analysts outside your core team. Treba provides dedicated compliance analysts in Nairobi who are trained on UK FCA requirements and work inside your compliance platform via secure VPN. This allows UK fintechs to scale verification capacity without extending recruitment cycles or compromising on regulatory standards.
Typical client
UK fintechs, neobanks, and payment providers processing 500+ KYC checks per month

The challenge
Why UK companies struggle with kyc & aml compliance.
FCA requirements are tightening. Customer onboarding volumes are growing. But recruiting compliance analysts in London takes 6–8 weeks and costs upward of £32,000 per head before you account for office space or recruitment fees. Meanwhile, your onboarding queue grows, conversion drops, and your existing team burns out handling volume spikes. The choice is usually: slow down growth or compromise on verification quality. Neither is acceptable.
