Entity Resolution

Entity resolution is the process of identifying, matching, and consolidating records that refer to the same individual, business, or organization across multiple databases and systems. It helps organizations create a single, accurate view of an entity by resolving duplicates, inconsistencies, and fragmented data. This is especially important in compliance, where incomplete or mismatched records can lead to regulatory breaches, fraud, or missed risk signals.For banks, fintechs, insurers, and regulators, entity resolution enables reliable Know Your Customer (KYC), Know Your Business (KYB), and anti-money laundering (AML) processes. It typically uses algorithms, fuzzy matching, probabilistic models, and increasingly AI-driven techniques to link records based on names, addresses, identifiers, and behavioral patterns. By unifying records, organizations strengthen risk assessment, streamline onboarding, and enhance operational efficiency, while ensuring they meet regulatory obligations for accurate reporting and customer due diligence.
