Paperless e-KYC (Know Your Customer) is presented by UIDAI to enforce inclusion, privacy & security. It will allow Aadhaar number holders to voluntarily utilize their cards to confirm their identification in a paperless and digital manner.<\/p>

RBI has decided to invite applications from NBFCs, Payment System Providers and Payment System Participants to obtain digital Aadhaar authentication. Banks & Financial Institutions with licenses are adopting the data security measures for Aadhar Vault to enable e-KYC integration and seamless data verification.<\/p>

Craft Silicon has recently tied up with Karza technologies to offer e-KYC services to the small finance banks and their BCs. It aims to offer seamless integration and real-time data verification.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The offline e-KYC approach allows Aadhaar cardholders to provide their KYC data for authentication quickly and simply. The KYC details are in an XML format. One can easily download an XML file version of their KYC information as an Aadhaar cardholder and give it to the requesting service providers or organizations. The UIDAI substantiates the XML file, which is a tamper-proof document, and it is signed electronically, adding to the security of the data being transmitted. The agencies can additionally verify the user’s identity by utilizing their own OTP or facial authentication.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\u00a0<\/span>E-KYC significantly lowers the cost of paper-based verification and KYC as it reduces the paper expenses that are avoided immediately, and the resources required to maintain it, like people, inventory, storage, etc resulting in massive cost-cutting.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u25cf\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Privacy<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

Privacy is addressed under E-KYC as the Aadhaar number of the customer is not disclosed, only a reference ID is shared. Moreover, core biometrics (fingerprints or iris) are not required for such verification. The Aadhaar number holder gets a choice of the data (among the demographics data and photo) to be shared giving the control in the hand of the customer.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u25cf\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Security<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

UIDAI digitally signs Aadhar KYC data to ensure its validity and detect any manipulation. Agencies can also use their OTP\/Face Authentication to verify the data. Residents have control over their data since KYC data is encrypted using the phrase given by the Aadhaar number bearer.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u25cf\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Inclusion<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

According to the\u00a0Signicat report (2020)<\/span><\/a>, 40% of consumers abandon the banking onboarding process in between because of the time required to complete the steps, or the need to reveal excessive personal information. E-KYC helps to reduce the time and will resolve the issue of privacy as it is voluntary and Aadhaar number holder driven.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
