IHS Markit, a company that provides a variety of businesses with cutting-edge information, analytics, and solutions, rolled out its Onboard Accelerator. The tool assists banks and services providers in opening accounts with institutional clients in an expedited manner.  

Onboarding clients in financial services can cost institutions over a month due to KYC, credit, legal, AML and other requirements, all of which necessitate potential clients handing over large amounts of information, the company notes.
