Why AML & KYC are complex for Capital Introduction Firms
Capital Introduction and Advisory Firms connect fund managers with investors, streamlining onboarding, due diligence, and compliance across jurisdictions. However, fragmented systems and manual KYC/AML processes can create operational risks and regulatory challenges.
How Capital Introduction Firms use Steward

Capital introduction doesn’t end at onboarding. Steward’s automated AML and lifecycle monitoring capabilities ensure investors are continuously screened and reviewed as part of an ongoing compliance program.
As a leading KYC provider, Steward performs both individual and corporate verification, mapping ownership structures and identifying ultimate beneficial owners.
