Restricted Party Screening

Whether you are performing diligence on anti-bribery / anti-corruption, know your third parties, KYC or AML our Direct+ API Restricted Party Screening Solution is an essential part of your onboarding and ongoing monitoring processes. One should use the features of Restricted Party Screening to:

• Save time and money when dealing with my low risk entities, but still following the minimum requirement for screening
• Screen my third parties against sanctions and PEPS
• To extend past standard screening on sanctions and PEPS into adverse media and factors that could hurt my businesses reputation
• Minimize work on customers or suppliers that I already have made a decision on
• Ensure that I am made aware of changes to screening events on my third parties
• Ensure I don't have to adjudicate the same screening event time and time again on my third parties. Also ensure I manage false positives in an effective manner
• Screen the business and associated people who own or run the business I am onboarding to fulfil the regulations I am governed by
