Know Your Customer Limited (knowyourcustomer.com) — Live, registry-connected global company verification and ownership data across 150+ jurisdictions (including the Philippines), exposed through three separable products: a KYB API (registry record — name, registration number, status, addresses, officers), a Company Data API (the raw entity dataset), and a KYC API that assembles a 'case' combining the entity record, a recursive ownership chart resolving controlling entities down to ultimate beneficial owners, identity verification on the associated directors/UBOs, and sanctions/watchlist scree…

Knowyourcustomer offers (Alternative, Reference, ESG, Fundamental) — Not stated as a record count; the quantified property is jurisdictional breadth — 150+ jurisdictions (the page states 150+; the search summary recorded 147, indicating the figure is current and moves). Two structural constraints on 'volume': the vendor states data is live from registries rather than cached, so the static asset is the accumulated ownership graph and case history rather than a mirror of global registries; and a separate 'company data API' product exists, implying a static entity dataset does exist — request its record count and per-jurisdiction depth..

Corporate onboarding/KYB automation for banks, fintechs and payment institutions, beneficial-ownership graph construction for related-party and group-exposure detection in lending (detecting that four apparently separate borrowers share one UBO is a credit use case, not just compliance), AML/sanctions screening model evaluation with individual-level labels, cross-border counterparty and vendor verification, shell-company and nominee-structure detection models, entity-resolution/name-disambiguation training across 150+ registry conventions, and continuous monitoring of customer-entity status changes for portfolio risk.

Coverage spans China/HK, UK, APAC, US, Japan; Financial Exchanges & Data, Application Software; alternative, reference, ESG, fundamental; equities, fixed_income.
