Sanctions list screening
OFAC, UN, EU, HMT and other global lists; coverage stated as 90+ watchlists
Name and entity matching quality
Fuzzy/transliterated name handling; discriminating on DOB, nationality, and identifiers to reduce false positives
PEP exposure and state-owned entity checks
Politically exposed persons, associates, and government ownership signals
Adverse media and high-risk country screening
Negative news attribution to the correct entity; jurisdiction risk flags
Illustrative example
- Input
- Screen Maria Lopez-Garcia, DOB 1984-03-11, Colombian national. The only candidate returned is an OFAC entry for Mario Lopes Garcia, DOB 1961, Cuban national.
- Expected behavior
- The agent clears the subject as a non-match and names the identifiers that rule it out — date of birth and nationality — while stating which lists were screened. It does not raise an alert on name similarity alone.
