Onboarding Friction for Asian Market Access

Anyone else finding the KYB process for new brokers in the Asian markets increasingly… thorough? Used to be a bit of a paperwork hurdle, but lately it feels like a full-blown competitive sport trying to get an account opened and funded without hitting some obscure anti-money laundering tripwire. Specifically looking at a few platforms for better access to some less liquid names on the SET, and the hoops they're making us jump through for basic entity verification are becoming quite the time sink. Wondering if it's just my experience or if this is a broader trend people are observing.
