Understanding sanctions & PEP screening
What is sanctions & PEP screening?
Sanctions and PEP screening checks whether a person or entity appears on a sanctions list, a regulatory or law-enforcement watchlist, or in politically exposed person data — the checks a business must run before onboarding a customer, vendor or partner in a regulated context.
On VerifyAll a business enters the subject, the platform screens the lists, scores each potential match on name and secondary identifiers, and returns a clear status — no match, potential match or confirmed match — with the underlying list detail and the option to keep the subject under ongoing monitoring.
Why businesses do it
To meet AML and KYC obligations and avoid transacting with a sanctioned or high-risk party.
What it screens
Global sanctions lists, regulatory and enforcement lists, defaulter lists and PEP, RCA and adverse-connection data.
How matching works
Each hit is scored on name similarity plus date of birth, nationality and ID overlap, so a weak match is not treated as a confirmed one.
What you get
A status, per-match list detail with the score, and a report — plus ongoing monitoring for changes.
What it looks like
A clear status, then the detail behind every match
The result opens with an outcome, lists what was screened, and scores each potential match.
