Design requirement R6.1: Low complexity

The eKYC process must be convenient, so that customers are not discouraged from registering at the new bank. It is only when the eKYC process is fast and simple for the customer that it can provide high security and acceptance. Thus, low complexity is a major requirement for user experience.

Source paper

This design requirement is proposed by Designing a Framework for Digital KYC Processes Built on Blockchain-Based Self-Sovereign Identity (Vincent Schlatt, Johannes Sedlmeir, Simon Feulner, Nils Urbach, 2022).

Designing a Framework for Digital KYC Processes Built on Blockchain-Based Self-Sovereign Identity

The paper derives six design objectives (16 sub-requirements) for an SSI-based eKYC framework and demonstrates how blockchain-based self-sovereign identity can solve KYC challenges without violating data-protection regulation, deriving three nascent design principles that theorize blockchain's role for SSI: use blockchain only for public data, anticipate an ecosystem of various ledgers, and enable decentralization at the edge.
