Bringing “Know Your Customer” Standards to Supply Chain Data

For years, Know Your Customer (KYC) processes in the banking industry have sought to verify corporate identity and prevent financial crime.

ECCMA applies advanced supplier identity verification to supply chains through its Know Your Supplier (eKYS) program.

ECCMA Know Your Supplier (eKYS) enables organizations to improve the quality and integrity of the data they hold on both local and global suppliers.

Supplier Identity Verification, using the International Business Registration Number (IBRN), Legal Name, and Date of Origin as key identity data, allows ECCMA to verify supplier legal identity against authoritative Business Register records — the only trusted source for company identity validation.

This process ensures that every supplier in your system is real, registered, and verifiable, supporting:

  • Supply chain transparency

  • Fraud prevention

  • Accurate supplier master data

  • Stronger compliance and ESG reporting

With ECCMA eKYS, you can manage supplier risk and compliance with the same rigor that financial institutions apply to customer verification.
