KYC Consulting Partners with SB C&S for RiskAnalyze Distribution

In a significant move towards enhancing corporate governance and compliance, KYC Consulting Co., Ltd. (KYCC), based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has entered into a distribution agreement with SB C&S Corporation, a leading IT distributor also headquartered in Tokyo. This partnership aims to leverage SB C&S's robust sales network to promote KYCC’s specialized risk assessment tool, RiskAnalyze.

Background and Purpose

With recent trends showing stricter international scrutiny from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and an accelerating demand for governance frameworks from publicly listed companies, the significance of anti-social forces checks and compliance verification has become a critical focus for businesses. Organizations are facing mounting pressures to eliminate ties to anti-social entities, enhancing their compliance measures in response to changing regulations. However, the practical execution of such checks often involves staggering amounts of time, effort, and specific expertise, leading to significant hurdles in the overall compliance process.

This is where RiskAnalyze steps in. Engineered to tackle these challenges, this state-of-the-art database-driven tool dramatically reduces the time taken to check relations to anti-social entities to as little as 0.4 seconds. Furthermore, it effectively assists businesses in balancing operational efficiency with stringent compliance standards.

Through this new partnership, KYC aims to utilize SB C&S's extensive trade network, which encompasses nearly 15,000 enterprises nationwide, to facilitate the widespread adoption of RiskAnalyze. Both companies are dedicated to enhancing corporate transparency and establishing trust within society through the implementation of robust compliance measures.

Overview of RiskAnalyze

RiskAnalyze is recognized as Japan's premier risk information database designed to support checks on anti-social forces and compliance. The tool aggregates risk information from over 1,000 locations domestically and more than 240 regions internationally, utilizing advanced AI technologies developed in collaboration with national universities to display only pertinent information.

By generating comprehensive investigation reports in under half a second, RiskAnalyze effectively mitigates the substantial time, cost, and effort traditionally associated with anti-social force and compliance checks. As of January 2025, the tool has been successfully integrated into approximately 1,200 companies.
