Match Logic
Fuzzy matching — catching what exact match misses
Name Variants & Aliases
Phonetic and edit-distance matching catches transliteration differences and aliases listed on sanctions entries.
Transliteration Support
Arabic, Cyrillic, and other non-Latin script transliterations normalised against Western-script entries on all four lists.
Entity Matching
Corporate entity matching — including partial name matches for subsidiaries and related entities on sanctions designations.
Configurable Match Threshold
Adjust sensitivity per list and entity type. High-confidence hits auto-escalate; lower-confidence hits routed to analyst review queue.
List Refresh
Daily updates with intraday emergency pulls
Sanctions lists are pulled daily from official sources. Emergency designations (UN Security Council resolutions, OFSI emergency directions) trigger an out-of-cycle pull within the hour of publication.
