AML & Sanctions Screening

Q: How often are the lists updated?

Lists are updated in real-time as changes are published by issuing authorities. Most major lists (OFAC, UN, EU) are updated within minutes of publication.

Q: How do you reduce false positives?

Our AI scoring engine uses contextual data (DOB, nationality, ID numbers) to score match confidence and filter out false positives, significantly reducing alert fatigue.

Q: Can I screen in bulk?

Yes. Our bulk screening API allows you to screen thousands of records simultaneously, ideal for periodic portfolio reviews.

Q: What is continuous monitoring?

Continuous monitoring re-screens your existing customer base against updated lists automatically, alerting you when a previously clean customer appears on a new list.
