Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) is a risk-based extension of standard customer due diligence used in anti-money-laundering compliance when a customer relationship or transaction presents heightened risk that normal controls cannot adequately manage. It requires organizations to complete baseline identification, beneficial ownership, purpose, risk assessment, and screening work before gathering additional evidence or imposing enhanced approvals, restrictions, and monitoring tailored to specific concerns such as complex ownership, politically exposed persons, geography, unusual transactions, or unclear sources of funds or wealth. International FATF standards and EU rules require proportionate measures, with particular obligations for PEPs and other legally specified scenarios, while local laws and sector rules determine the exact operational requirements. The guidance distinguishes source of funds, meaning the origin and path of assets used in a particular transaction, from source of wealth, meaning how a person accumulated their overall assets, and emphasizes checking the origin, ownership, movement, purpose, and consistency of evidence. EDD does not itself indicate criminality or replace separate suspicion-reporting decisions; instead, it should produce an auditable decision, clear ownership, and an ongoing monitoring plan that responds to future changes and events.
