Onboarding Friction for Asian Market Access

Anyone else finding the KYB process for new accounts with brokers offering significant Asian market access, especially for local equities like SET, becoming increasingly cumbersome? It seems like every new provider has a slightly different set of hoops, often involving physical document verification or notarized copies that eat into setup time. The additional friction isn't just about compliance; it genuinely impacts rapid deployment of new strategies or diversification. It also feels like some of the requirements are not uniform across the board, even for the same jurisdictions.
