FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
The AML watchlist lists individuals, entities, or countries monitored for their high-risk suspicious activities, but not necessarily prohibited. These lists may include fugitive, debarment, exclusion lists, and more.
Unlike sanctions, which are legal restrictions, the purpose of a watchlist is to detect individuals and entities for their potential risk of facilitating money laundering for early detection and management of risks.
Name screening is the process of comparing names against sanctions lists and watchlists to identify potential matches. We deploy several algorithms, including aliases and AKA detection, so no potential suspect remains unnoticed.
