NorthRow
Automated KYC and KYB Compliance for UK Financial Services
NorthRow is a UK-based compliance technology company specialising in automated KYC and KYB verification for regulated financial services firms. The platform digitises and automates the end-to-end client onboarding journey — from identity verification and sanction/PEP screening to beneficial ownership resolution and ongoing monitoring — enabling compliance teams to reduce manual effort while maintaining full regulatory audit trails. NorthRow integrates data from multiple authoritative UK and international sources (Companies House, DVLA, credit bureaux, electoral roll) to validate individual and business identities against multiple independent datasets simultaneously. Particularly well-suited to UK-regulated firms navigating FCA and HMRC AML requirements.
