Guided product tour

Adjudicate a sanctions screening hit

Six steps, no account, nothing to install. Each step is its own page, so you can send a colleague a link to the part that matters and it will open exactly there.

Every name, list and identifier in this walkthrough is invented. SAMPLE SUBJECT 001 is not a person, SPECIMEN SANCTIONS LIST is not a real list, and none of these panels is a screenshot — they are drawn with the same components the application is built from.

Test the secondary discriminators

Is there anything that positively rules this in or out?

Date of birth, nationality and a strong identifier are the discriminators that turn an unresolvable name match into a decision. Where a discriminator is missing, that absence is itself recorded — an alert cleared because the data was thin is a different decision from one cleared because the data disagreed.

Discriminator review

Sample data
  • Date of birth

    Discriminates

    Both records carry a full date and they are seventeen years apart. On its own this clears the hit.

  • Nationality

    Discriminates

    Every nationality held by the customer is recorded, and none overlaps the listed jurisdiction.

  • Strong identifier

    Unavailable

    The list publishes no identifier for this entry, so no positive confirmation is possible from it.

  • Address

    Weak signal

    Country-level only on the list side. Recorded, but it decides nothing either way.

What was available, not only what matched. An alert cleared on thin data is a different record from one cleared on contradicting data.

Why it matters. Recording which discriminators were available, not only which ones matched, is what lets the same alert be re-examined years later without repeating the investigation.

After the tour

The same walkthrough, against your own list configuration

A specialist runs this on the lists your policy puts in scope, at the threshold your committee approved, with the customer types you actually onboard.
