Seychelles International Business Authority SIBA Selects WorldCheck...



The Seychelles International Business Authority (SIBA) is committed to ensure that the Seychelles is in compliance with international standards and best practices in maintaining its name as a reputable offshore financial centre. In pursuit of this commitment, SIBA has recently subscribed to World-Check, the leading provider of structured intelligence on heightened risk individuals and entities, in order to facilitate its due diligence reviews of submissions for registration and application of licenses.



World-Check's global database of heightened risk individuals and entities, is well established as a 'must-have' in any anti-money laundering, fraud prevention and anti-terrorist financing protocol. Over 2,000 institutions, including 46 of the world's 50 largest financial institutions and hundreds of government agencies, rely on the World-Check database to efficiently screen their customers, associates, applicants, transactions and employees for potential risk. SIBA will now join those institutions that already count on World-Check to mitigate their risk.



The implementation of World-Check is one of SIBA's actions in enhancing the prudential and effective framework, as part of "Know Your Client" procedures that is in accordance with internationally accepted standards. SIBA is determined to attract only genuine players and investors to conduct legitimate offshore business activities in Seychelles.



"SIBA has shown great initiative and commitment to safe-guarding and promoting the reputation of the Seychelles as a serious and reputable place of business," said David Leppan CEO of World-Check, "We are pleased to be assisting SIBA in this respect. World-Check has proven its worth in most offshore jurisdictions and our 97% renewal rate, year-on-year, is the best sign of our customers' confidence and satisfaction with our service."
