Why source of funds drags

The evidence is in the statements. Reading them all is the problem.

01

Manual review is tedious

Verifying funds means wading through months of bank statements, line by line, for every client.

02

Back-and-forth wastes time

Chasing clients to explain individual credits stretches a check from minutes into weeks.

03

Email isn’t secure

Sensitive financial documents shared over email put both the client and the firm at risk.

Statements vs. Open Banking

A folder of PDFs vs. a reconciled view.

Same client, same funds. Switch between a manual statement review and ClearSignal’s Open Banking trace to see how a multi-day task becomes a few minutes.

⏸ PDFs · manual review

Six months of statements to read.

The client emails over PDFs, someone reads every line, and the questions go back and forth for a week before the funds add up.

What changes with ClearSignal

Faster checks. Clearer evidence. Happier clients.

01

Verify in real time

Open Banking connects to 95% of UK banks, so funds are confirmed in minutes rather than days of reading.

02

Decide on evidence

Consolidated, multi-source reporting gives a transparent view of six months of verified financial data.

03

A simple, secure connection replaces the document chase, saving time for the firm and the client alike.

How it works

From connection to a balanced source of funds.

Open Banking does the gathering; ClearSignal does the reconciling.

1

Client connects securely

A read-only Open Banking link (or a document upload) shares six months of data without emailing statements.

2

Transactions are categorised

Self-learning models categorise every credit and debit and highlight anything that needs context.

3

Sources are identified

Salary, property, savings, gifts: each source of funds is identified and evidenced.

4

The totalizer reconciles

A visual Dynamic Totalizer confirms the declared sources equal the transaction value.

5

Smart fact finds fill gaps

Targeted questionnaires ask only the relevant questions to close any remaining gap, with evidence kept on file.

Flexible capture

Clients choose Open Banking or document upload, whichever suits the case.

Secure by design

Read-only access and in-platform evidence mean sensitive statements never travel by email.

Evidence by default

Funds traced, sources balanced, evidence kept.

A source-of-funds check has to be defensible. ClearSignal records each identified source, the supporting evidence, the totalizer reconciliation and the reviewer’s sign-off, all together against the case.
