Different timing
Pre-assessment happens during prospect qualification. CDD or KYB happens when the organization is ready to perform a formal onboarding review.
Different evidence
An early score can use CRM fields, classifications and screening indicators. Formal due diligence requires verified information, documents and review procedures defined by the regulated business.
What it does not replace
Pre-assessment does not replace legal advice, customer due diligence, KYC, KYB, sanctions match review, ongoing monitoring or a final decision by the responsible compliance team.
