Anti-Money Laundering (AML) screening is one of the methods used for risk assessment of a company’s existing or potential customers under AML guidelines.
With AML screening, businesses ensure that their existing or potential customers are not present in any of the sanctions lists, PEPs, banned or wanted lists, and adverse media data. Performing screening of your customers is the main element of the AML compliance program.
AML screening is performed to fulfil three main objectives.
People having their names in sanctions or any other wanted lists are high-risk customer profiles for businesses, especially those in PEPs (Politically exposed persons) list. PEP individuals have higher opportunities for financial crimes including corruption and bribery than others. Therefore, banks and financial institutions are required to perform the screening of each customer, so they can identify high-risk clients and abstain from doing business with them.
Businesses can create an AML Control Program when they first open an account to a customer based on their risk levels by scanning them in more than 6000 Global Sanctions lists, PEPs Lists, and Adverse Media Data are updated every 15 minutes.
Businesses can perform PEP, Sanction Remittance, Payment, Vessel, and Aircraft
Screening using AML Name Scanning Software.

be performed single or batch with options such as Name, Identity, and Passport Number.
