Name: BEV Break: Closing the sole prop gap in business identity
Start: Mar 26, 2025

Verifying sole proprietors is a growing challenge—learn how to close the identity gap without adding friction

For banks, fintechs, marketplaces, and other companies running KYB at scale, verifying businesses that aren’t traditional large enterprises is an ongoing challenge. Sole proprietors, in particular, often lack structured business records, making them difficult to identify—and a prime target for fraud. Without a clear way to distinguish legitimate businesses from bad actors, financial institutions risk onboarding fraudsters or adding unnecessary friction for real customers. Kurt Ruppel, Co-Founder and CTO of Middesk, will share insights on how businesses can bridge this identity gap without compromising efficiency.

Key takeaways from this session:

• Key red flags signaling fraudulent sole proprietors

• Strategies to verify sole props without slowing approvals

• How business identity intelligence helps onboard legitimate businesses faster
