As businesses prepare for a potential global recession in 2023, they are focusing on maximising profitability and capital-efficient growth. Against this backdrop, Smile Identity’s report highlights the crucial role of tailored onboarding processes. By collaborating closely with ID authorities and clients, the company has achieved high pass rates while preventing fraud, safeguarding user data, and ensuring compliance with new data protection regulations.
