NameScan is an integrated all-in-one platform offering Anti Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing services. NameScan specialises in PEP and Sanction screening, to support onboarding customers for compliance.
The Sapphire level of service, Sapphire Checks, utilises Acuris Risk Intelligence's Database (C6 Intelligence Database) of PEP and Sanctions which is updated daily. This database contains over 1.4 Million PEP profiles, 1.2 Million Sanction profiles and 400,000 adverse media links.
The Emerald level of service, Emerald Checks, utilises NameScan's Proprietary Database, consisting of consolidated global PEP lists and Sanction profiles that have been collected from the government and other official sources of information which are publicly available on the internet. These lists are updated on a daily basis and the vendor states they work continuously to find and add new profiles each day.
NameScan also offers free services: users may check for Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) and Sanctions, to detect potential customers who may expose a business to greater risk than might be expected, or whether or not various individuals are facing sanctions that may legally restrict them from certain activities.
