ISO Standard for KYC

I’m assuming that by KYC you mean “Know Your Customer”, a set of processes that allow banks and other financial institutions to confirm the identity of the organizations and individuals they do business with, and ensure those entities are acting legally.

From that perspective, we do not see a need for financial institutions to use ISO 27001 (nor any other standard from the ISO27k series) for the KYC process.
