After initiating KYC for a customer, you can perform it as many times as needed during the period that the KYC is active for the customer.

The reminder will appear in the Overview, in the Event list in Advisor KYC and the tab Advisor KYC on the customer in Practice management.

Advisor KYC continuously checks if there are any changes among your customers' company details, for example if executives or beneficial owners have changed, or if they have been added to a PEP or sanctions list.
