Key Challenges in Customer Watchlist Screening and How RiskShield Solves Them

1. Frequent Watchlist Updates
Sanctions and PEP lists are updated frequently, requiring immediate processing to stay compliant.
RiskShield automates list updates and instantly triggers screenings to ensure full regulatory alignment.

 

2. False Positives Overload
Excessive matches from conventional systems waste time and slow down compliance teams.
RiskShield reduces false positives through context-aware techniques such as customer type and date of birth matching.

 

3. Inconsistent Screening Across Channels
Disconnected systems result in fragmented compliance checks and unclear screening status.
RiskShield integrates seamlessly into core systems and returns unified screening results via real-time API.

 

4. Redundant Screening Effort
Repeated daily screenings often lead to duplicate alerts for unchanged customer data.
RiskShield performs incremental screenings and only checks updated or new records against list changes. 

 

5. Operational Inefficiencies
Manual screening workflows are slow and error-prone, increasing the risk of missed deadlines.
RiskShield automates the entire process – from list management to match resolution – including case handling.

 

6. Regulatory Pressure and Timelines
Institutions must prove compliance within one day – even on weekends and holidays.
RiskShield enables daily and real-time screenings, fully aligned with the requirements of EU Regulation 2024/886.
