Screening services

Your business challenge
Financial institutions that can enhance screening and investigations can improve compliance while reducing operational costs. But effective screening of customers and counterparties is becoming more difficult due to several factors:
- Increasingly sophisticated efforts to hide true identities and beneficial owners
- Emergence of new, real-time financial products and channels
- Fast-evolving regulations
- Ever-changing sanction lists of individuals and entities as a result of geopolitical and country-specific changes
- Legacy, rules-based systems that generate many false-positive alerts
