How risk scoring works

For each subject, we query multiple sanctions and PEP lists and combine results into a single risk score. The score considers:

• Confidence of the match (name similarity, identifiers, and disambiguation signals)
• Presence and severity of sanctions
• Politically Exposed Person (PEP) status and role seniority
• Adverse signals that connect the person to crime, terrorism, or war
• Links to sanctioned individuals or entities
• Links to known criminals or criminal organizations
• Jurisdictional risk based on the person’s country of residence or activity

Risk thresholds can be configured to automatically approve, review, or reject, and all underlying signals are available for audit and explainability.
