kompany, (officially 360kompanyAG),[2] is an Austrian regulatory technology (regtech) platform for global business verification and business know your customer (KYC) services. Their global network provides real-time access to commercial registers, financial authorities and tax offices in over 200 countries and jurisdictions worldwide. [3][4][1]
History and Fundings
kompany was founded in 2012 by Russell E. Perry and Peter Bainbridge-Clayton.[5][6] In 2019, UNIQA Ventures and Elevator Ventures, an investment vehicle of RBI, added to kompany’s list of investors.[7] The latest investment round took place in 2020, with an estimated six million USD investment.[8] In 2020, kompany was ranked among Global Regtech100[9] and also listed as one of the 100 best startups in Austria by Austrian economy magazine Trend.[10][11][12] They were also featured in the fifth annual list of Europe's fastest growing companies from the Financial Times.[13] kompany´s headquarters are located in Vienna, Austria with sales desks in London, New York and Singapore.[5]
Company data verification network
Despite the strict requirements of the latest anti-money laundering regulations many of the world's largest accounting firms source their Business KYC data from static databases[14] or search for it manually[1], which is not compliant with modern regulations.[15] The kompany network provides dynamic access to primary source documents, delivering audit-proof company data instantaneously from commercial registers and financial authorities and tax offices from over 200 countries and jurisdictions. The network offers official business data from more than 115 million companies worldwide. [16][17][3][4] With this data companies in regulated industries can monitor other companies, e.g. overview if shareholders changed, or if those shareholders are on sanction lists, where the company is located, or if there were general shifts in the shareholder structure.[1][18]
kompany is using a blockchain based solution to bring Business KYC and compliance onto blockchains and provide audit-proof company data to their clients to be compliant with anti-money laundering regulations[19]. The technology is running on the Bitcoin SV Blockhain,[19] a hard fork chain split of Bitcoin Cash.
