# Why do I need to go through verification?

To enable us to provide a compliant and secure deal flow and fundraising platform we need to ensure we have carried out adequate due diligence and can confidently confirm that we know the identity of our customers, ensure they are in fact the owner of that identity and that they are knowing and present during identification.

 

In short, we aim to protect both investors and companies in the Floww ecosystem from bad actors and/or criminal activity such as money laundering or attempts to enter into a financial agreement fraudulently.
