AML & Sanctions Screening
Assess money-laundering risk, screen names against sanctions lists, recommend controls, and produce an audit-ready AML compliance file.
Skills in this bundle
AML Sentinel
AML inherent-risk scoring across product/customer/channel/geo dimensions using YOUR institution's risk matrix: deterministic, auditable grade + control measures + names-to-screen.
ControlPilot
Takes an AML inherent-risk profile (upstream aml-risk-assessor JSON or a raw case) and proposes proportionate control/mitigation measures (EDD, monitoring, approval triggers).
Sanction Screener
Deterministic entity extraction (org/person/vessel) into a sanction watchlist. (Action Co-pilot: generates next-best-actions (actions.json), follow-up tasks and calendar reminders on top of the analysis — what to act on today.)
Fraud Radar
Run a set of deterministic, explainable fraud heuristics over a bank statement. Two check types: fictitious_cash (round-number padding, large cash withdrawals, high-frequency identical amounts, weekend large amounts) and shareholder_misappropriation (related-party / shareholder keywords, outflow with no repayment / long-outstanding). Every hit lists the rule and evidence — leads for human review, not conclusions. Outputs a 2-sheet Excel.
Regulatory Sentinel
Compliance check and internal control audit testing. Modes: check (document compliance against GDPR/SOC2/PCI-DSS/HIPAA/CSRC/CBRC/PBOC), audit (internal control testing with structured test report), fetch (regulatory docs), prompt (MD compliance prompts).

FAQ
Which sanctions and watchlists are supported?
Major sanctions/watchlists and custom lists can be imported, with exact and fuzzy matching; hits carry match rationale and confidence for analyst judgment.
Can risk-rating rules be customized?
Yes. Risk factors, weights, and thresholds are configurable, supporting tiering by customer type, geography, industry, and transaction features, outputting a grade with drivers.
Is the compliance file usable for examinations?
Yes. It includes risk rating, screening results, controls, and disposition records with traceable evidence, exportable to PDF/Excel for regulatory examination.
How is the miss rate reduced?
Risk assessment, sanctions screening, and fraud analysis work in tandem, cross-validating signals and flagging suspicious items upfront, reducing single-rule misses.
How are data security and compliance ensured?
Everything runs on your machine; customer and transaction data never leave the network, with private deployment and access control, fitting financial confidentiality and AML regulation.
