The verification of cell phone number of directors and sponsors of a company will also eliminate the chances of misuse of Computerised National Identity Card (CNIC) or cell number of any individual for fraudulent purposes, said a press release issued hereVerification of CNICs with NADRA databases is already in practice.
The whole verification process is fully electronic and instant. It is an important development in the context of challenges posed by AML and CFT also.
