AML and Sanctions Screening Solutions for Compliance

AML and sanctions screening technology helps financial institutions detect and prevent financial crimes. These tools automate Know Your Customer (KYC), Customer Identification Program (CIP), and screening processes against global sanctions lists, watchlists, Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs), and adverse media sources to support regulatory compliance.

They help firms comply with global AML regulations, reduce financial and reputational risk, and streamline compliance operations by automating screening, investigations, and reporting.

Our FinCrime Risk Surveillance solution combines ComplianceAlpha^® technology (powered by ComplyAdvantage) with optional support from our AML-specialized managed services team. It enables firms to manage onboarding, document reviews, ongoing risk screening, remediation, and regulatory reporting across global sanctions, PEPs, watchlists, and adverse media. Our global AML team includes over 40 dedicated specialists, with 10 Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (CAMS)-certified senior professionals and supervisors.

The solution screens customer data against global sanctions and regulatory lists using near real-time monitoring and AI-powered financial crime intelligence. Advanced name-matching algorithms and daily alerts help teams quickly identify, escalate, and resolve risks. For firms using our AML managed services, our analysts can handle data entry, reporting, and review items of interest. Validated alerts can then be escalated to firm contacts for final remediation.

Powered by ComplyAdvantage’s AI-driven detection engine, our solution delivers daily match alerts, reduces false positives, and automates key compliance workflows, from alert investigation to audit documentation.
