This can be resolved !.
the same entity moving the same transaction thru 2 different payment entities requires 2 kyc checks. the inability to leverage previously completed kyc is such an enormous inefficiency. Increases risk bc nobody can specialize and waste bc the same work is done repeatitively.

Congrats on another new beginning @jeff_jordan! Like everything you’ve done in your career, you crushed it in VC. Proud and lucky to have spent a chunk of my career working with & learning from you.
I’ve adored my time working in the technology start-up world, as an operator and an investor. Magic happens with absurdly high frequency here! Now, after 12 years at @a16z, it’s time for the next adventure. To the a16 team, the founders we’ve funded and our LPs – thank you for.

I've worked with many risk leaders in my years of building FinTech companies. Xin Ge is a truly exceptional talent in the field. Glad to be spending more time with him as an Exec in Residence and bringing his skills to bear for our companies @matrixvc
