DO YOU HAVE A SPECIFIC QUESTION?
Following the financial crisis of 2007, compliance requirements have risen sharply in Switzerland. The Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA and various self-regulatory organisations (SROs), such as the VQF (Association for Quality Assurance in Financial Services), introduced stricter due diligence requirements and controls.
Supervision of Swiss casinos is among the strictest in the world
The Swiss Federal Gaming Board (ESBK) is the supervisory authority for casinos. The ESBK and cantonal authorities carry out over 100 inspections of casinos every year. The inspections examine the effectiveness of measures against gambling addiction and money laundering, as well as the correct operation of gaming operations, electronic control systems and video surveillance.
No money laundering
Like banks, casinos and gambling providers must ensure that they are not misused to channel funds of criminal origin into the legal financial circuit and thus conceal their origin. Casinos are subject to the Anti-Money Laundering Act. Compliance with the due diligence requirements is monitored by the Swiss Federal Gaming Board (ESBK). The self-regulatory organization SRO Casinos advises the affiliated casinos and trains their staff.

KYC stands for "Know Your Customer" or "Know Your Client" and is an important tool for the financial sector in particular to check the identity of its customers with regard to compliance (sanction lists, PEP status, CRIME, blacklists or watchlists).
KYC stands for "Know Your Customer" or "Know Your Client" and is an important tool for the financial sector in particular to check the identity of its customers with regard to compliance (sanction lists, PEP status, CRIME, blacklists or watchlists). KYC is part of the Simplified Due Diligence (SDD) of financial intermediaries as part of a compliance process. It is operated with the aim of preventing white-collar crime or money laundering.
For casinos in Switzerland, KYC checks before the start of a customer relationship are a means of fulfilling the regulatory requirements of ESBK . It checks whether customers are trustworthy based on suspicious transactions or hits on a risk list (e.g. sanctions lists or PEP lists).
Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) is part of the KYC process and reviews potential business partners and customers in depth for risks.
Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) is part of the KYC process and reviews potential business partners and customers in depth for risks. EDD can assist if an increased risk has been identified during a KYC check or if the customer is carrying out risky transactions that suggest money laundering, fraud, tax evasion or terrorist financing.
In simple terms, an EDD process collects relevant and more detailed information on entities. A simple KYC check and CDD identification verification provides the basis for risk assessment.
KYC policies consist of Customer Due Diligence (CDD) and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD). While CDD comprises the identification and ongoing monitoring of customers, EDD reports are used to collect and evaluate additional information on the entities that have received a high risk rating in the CDD/KYC checks.
Thus it can be simplified said that an EDD process collects extended compliance relevant and more detailed information on entities. A simple KYC check and CDD identification verification within the framework of CDD provide the basis for risk assessment.
Basically, customer verification starts with the simple collection of data and information about the entity. This can be a KYC check for a natural or legal person.
Basically, customer verification starts with the simple collection of data and information about the entity. This can be a KYC check for a natural or legal person. FINMA recommends that banks start the identification process for their customers after the first KYC check. In addition, banks and regulated financial intermediaries should conduct an in-depth review of their business partners as part of an Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) report.
