Business Cases vs Business Profiles

Last updated: April 29, 2025

Business Profiles: Comprehensive, Ongoing Verification

Business Profiles are ideal when you require in-depth, multi-stage due diligence on a business.

Why Choose Business Profiles:

  • πŸ” Multiple Checks & Monitoring: Perform business lookups, sanction screenings, document analysis β€” all across multiple stages.

  • UBO & Related Persons: Add Ultimate Beneficial Owners or stakeholders and run KYC & sanctions checks.

  • Document Uploads: Store and review uploaded business documents.

  • Risk Scoring: Profiles are assigned dynamic risk scores.

  • πŸ›  Compliance Tools: Includes access to tools like Compliance Copilot.

  • πŸ› Registry Access: Purchase verified documents directly from government registries.

Recommended When:

  • You need ongoing monitoring or multiple checks.

  • You want to track and store business documents.

  • You’re verifying complex business structures or multiple individuals.


Business Cases: Quick, One-Time Checks

Business Cases are best suited for ad-hoc, one-time checks without ongoing monitoring.

Why Choose Business Cases:

  • Single Check: Ideal for one-time verification actions.

  • No Monitoring or UBO Additions: Lacks extended KYC and compliance features.

  • πŸ—‚ No Document Uploads: Simpler process for quick turnarounds.

Recommended When:

  • You need to verify a business once with no future follow-up.

  • No related individuals or documents are involved.

  • Simplicity and speed are the priority.


πŸ” How They Work Together

Each check performed within a Business Profile is technically a Business Case behind the scenes.
The Business Profile acts as a centralised dashboard to organise, manage, and monitor all the linked Business Cases β€” perfect for layered, long-term compliance.
