Encompass has closed a funding round led by BNP Paribas to accelerate corporate digital identity technology, the company said on 30 September 2025. Capital is aimed at further development of the CDI platform EC360 for scalable, client-centric bank KYC.
The Glasgow-based firm automates bank KYC and financial-crime entity profiles and participates in the FinTech Scotland ecosystem. BNP Paribas framed the investment as supporting clients from first onboarding through the lifecycle with future-ready KYC tooling.
The company release did not lead with a headline round size in the extract available to editors; secondary databases have floated figures that AI-360 is not repeating until they appear on a primary. Exact ownership terms were likewise undisclosed.
Banks evaluating Encompass should test EC360 against their own perpetual-KYC and remediation workloads, and clarify how BNP Paribas sponsorship affects roadmap priorities for non-BNPP institutions.
