Which component provides written evidence of client consent and disclosure of information?

• A. KYC data
• B. Stated objectives
• C. Risk tolerance
• D. Signed client acknowledgments and disclosures

Answer: (D)

The main idea here is documenting that the client has consented to information sharing and has acknowledged the disclosures they’ve been given. Signed client acknowledgments and disclosures provide the formal written record of that consent and understanding, which is essential for regulatory compliance and for maintaining an auditable trail.

KYC data is information used to identify and verify the client, not evidence of consent to disclose or share information. Stated objectives describe what the client aims to achieve, and risk tolerance reflects how much risk the client is willing to take; neither of these creates or evidences consent to disclosures.
