FAQs
Do you perform global sanctions and PEP screening?
Yes. We screen global sanctions lists, PEP databases, and watchlists, then apply manual analyst and investigator validation to reduce false positives.
​​
What sources do you use for AML checks?
Public records, government sanctions lists, commercial databases, such as Refinitiv WorldCheck, court records, media archives, corporate registries, and primary-source verification where required.
​​
How long does an enhanced AML review take?
24–72 hours. Complex cross-border or beneficial-ownership investigations typically take 3–10 business days depending on local registry responsiveness.
​​​​
How do you handle false positives and disputed matches?​
We perform manual adjudication using multiple identifiers (DOB, nationality, aliases, documents), attach source evidence, and provide a confidence score. Where ambiguity remains, we recommend primary-source verification or client-supplied documentation before before a final decision is made.
