Integrating this into its online account opening process, Phillip Futures aims to provide customers with a fast and secure digital onboarding experience while adhering to data privacy standards and meeting compliance obligations.
The online identity verification tool conducts an identity proof check for
authentication and validity, a similarity check (where the applicant’s face has to
match his identify proof), and a liveness check (where the applicant moves physically
in accordance with onscreen instructions), before giving a definitive answer on
whether the applicant is who he says he is, in under five minutes.
