Sanctions lists are lists of individuals and companies subject to international sanctions (e.g., EU, OFAC, UN). The platform must not provide services to persons on sanctions lists.

PEP (Politically Exposed Person) is a politically exposed person.
This includes individuals who hold or have held prominent public functions (e.g., member of parliament, minister, judge, diplomat) as well as persons closely associated with them.

Being a PEP does not mean you cannot invest—only that enhanced due diligence is required.

AML (Anti-Money Laundering) refers to a set of rules designed to prevent money laundering. It means the platform must know its users and the origin of their funds.

For this reason, Bondster verifies:
– the user’s identity,
– whether the user is on a sanctions list or is a PEP,
– the owner of the account from which the payment is made,
– information on the source of funds.

Therefore, you may be asked to provide additional information or documents—this is a legal requirement that applies to every loan and every payment.

Yes, AML and KYC verification via Sumsub is mandatory.
Bondster is a regulated investment platform and, under anti–money laundering legislation (AML), it must identify and verify every investor.

Verification ensures:
– the security of financial transactions,
– prevention of fraud and account misuse,
– compliance with legal obligations towards regulators.

Without successful AML and KYC verification, you cannot invest on the platform or add funds.
