Anyone else hitting onboarding friction with new APAC brokers for prop funds?

asked by u/smoke_tester · 18d · 2 answers

Starting to explore new avenues for prop firm liquidity in the APAC region, but the KYC/AML process has been a real bottleneck. Seems like a step backward compared to just a year or two ago, especially for established entities. Are others seeing similar delays and increased documentation requirements, or is it just the specific firms I'm vetting? Wondering if there's an optimal path for smoother integration or if this is the new normal.

    That's interesting. I'm just getting into looking at APAC for prop firm opportunities myself. Are you finding it's a specific region within APAC, or pretty much across the board with all the brokers you're talking to?

    It's not just you. I've started wondering if 'Know Your Customer' has evolved into 'Know Every Ancestor Your Customer Has Ever Had.' The paperwork keeps multiplying like rabbits, and the waiting game is real.
