"Because it’s too hard for two highly regulated industries — legal cannabis-related businesses and financial institutions — to connect. A volatile mix of local, state, federal and banking laws and regulations make relationships difficult. Compliance and reporting can be overwhelming for both parties. Many financial institutions have steered clear of this new business opportunity, intimidated by the potential risk of tainted funds. Many legally operating businesses are forced to manage large amounts of cash, stifling their ability to grow. Green Check replaces these processes with a cloud-based platform that verifies legal cannabis-related businesses, analyzes every transaction and automatically files required reports."
