On 29 March 2022, the Wolfsberg Group published its guidance on digital customer lifecycle risk management.

- More effective identification, verification and authentication processes at the onboarding stage.
- A multi-dimensional and continually reassessed customer risk profile.
- A redesigned trigger-based approach for conducting ongoing due diligence.
