Improving the KYC Onboarding Process Using Business Process Re-Engineering: A Case Study of a Foreign Bank in Indonesia

Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 06

Abstract

The Know-Your-Customer (KYC) onboarding component in the customer acquisition process became an issue in an Indonesian branch of a prominent global bank. In 2023, the branch received a significant complaint from one of its major clients, noting the inefficiency of its KYC onboarding process, thus garnering attention from local senior management. From 2019 to 2023, there was a steady increase in client dissatisfaction rate and the number of new clients dropping their requests during the KYC onboarding stage. This research aims to identify the pain points in Magnolia Bank’s KYC onboarding process and propose solutions using the Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) approach. Fifteen respondents, including 10 bank employees and 5 corporate clients, were interviewed. Thematic analysis of interview results was conducted and it revealed three major pain points of the process: difficulty in document submission, challenges in requirements, and communication issues. The root cause of these pain points were then analyzed using the fishbone diagram, from which three root causes were discovered: inadequate technology infrastructure, lack of transparency in the process, and insufficient guidance that clients receive from the bank. The BPR approach was taken to fix the problems, the project focused on improving the guidance to clients, enhancing technology infrastructure, and developing a system for clients to track their onboarding progress. The proposed business solution for this research is for Magnolia Bank to develop a dedicated KYC onboarding platform, allowing prospective clients to submit the requirements directly, experience a one-window communication system, and track their KYC onboarding status.
