Sanctions and watchlists screening FAQs

ComplyAdvantage has set up a radically different technical architecture, leveraging data science and machine learning to understand risk. While we still review data manually, our approach results in data being updated in minutes rather than months.

We update our data faster using automated processes. We also corroborate & validate entities and enhance existing data such as dates of birth and photographs. We compile disparate data into consolidated, structured profiles with clear, traceable source data and detect relations to other risk entities.

Our sanctions data provides the context needed to make the right risk decisions with a single comprehensive profile, enhanced with the most up-to-date adverse media and AML/CTF information.

Yes. Lists of individuals, legal entities, and vessels issued by relevant law enforcement or regulatory bodies are included in our dataset. Entities on such lists are either involved in law-breaking activities at an international level, in particular jurisdictions under investigation, or found guilty of regulatory breaches in their operating industry, which may indicate a significant financial, compliance, or reputational risk.

This information can be used when determining whether or not to engage in a business relationship with potential customers, counterparties, and suppliers. It might equally be of use when making payments and determining whether or not a payment is being made in the furtherance of a crime or as part of a financial crime, such as a money laundering or insider trading scheme.

The ComplyAdvantage data set includes, without limitation, regional, national, and international data sets.

Therefore, this category encompasses lists of individuals and legal entities that have been disqualified or otherwise restricted from holding certain positions or participating in certain activities, such as publicly-funded contracts, due to regulatory or code of conduct breaches.
