KYC Automation for Scale vs. False Positives
We're pushing hard on automating our KYC process to handle more volume, particularly with a lot of new retail accounts coming in. The speed is there, but I'm getting pushback from the compliance team about the increased rate of false positives flagging legitimate users, which then bogs down their manual review. It's a classic friction point between ops efficiency and robust compliance. How are others balancing aggressive automation with maintaining a low false-positive rate on initial screenings, especially for basic account setups?

This is such a common struggle. Are you finding the false positives are mostly in specific regions or related to certain types of new accounts? Sometimes tuning the risk parameters for those segments can help without impacting the whole system too much.
