KYC stands for “Know Your Customer” or “Know Your Client.” Usually, KYC policies go alongside Anti-Money Laundering (AML) policies and help companies avoid the risks of being involved in illegal activity. That’s why crypto platforms use special software and complex measures for tracking suspicious activity and checking customers’ names against government lists. By choosing an exchange that applies a KYC policy, you can be sure your funds are secure and are not involved in illegal activities.
