Authorized Signer Management
Benefit from WorkFusion’s industry-leading solutions that help you automate the process of adding, updating and verifying the list of authorized signers for a corporate bank account through submitted documentation and data.
Why it is important
A corporation can have multiple authorized signers who are trusted individuals to conduct business on behalf of the account. The list of authorized signers is submitted to the bank when a new account is opened and may be routinely updated, especially for large organizations. To be onboarded and verified, the authorized signers must sign the required bank documents and submit both – proof of ID and proof of residence. Any document from the bank that requires a signature, or any financial transaction that takes place, should be authorized by one of the signers on file for that account.
What needs to be improved
The list of authorized signers can be extensive — especially for corporate entities with complex structures. Moreover, the need to manually process supporting documents for every individual makes onboarding very tedious, costly, and prone to error.
The existing process is:
-
Expensive and error-prone
Onboarding specialists spend a lot of time (≥ 15 minutes) manually verifying signers for each account.
-
Inefficient and slow
Onboarding specialists rarely undertake comprehensive data entry for authorized signer details, which leads to inefficiencies when the signer must be verified.
