Ongoing AML monitoring is a process to catch the updates of customer status and reputation. This keeps information about applicants up-to-date with the changes to sanction lists, watchlists, and adverse media across the globe.

Once AML Screening is carried out, the Ongoing AML monitoring can be enabled in order to update the applicant data as soon as the information is changed in the sources. This lets you get reliable data, reduce manual labor, and protect your business from crime.

🚧

Important

• Ongoing AML monitoring is available at an additional cost and will work only for the applicants that will be approved after the purchase of the service. If you want to check the applicants that have been approved earlier, you should perform AML Screening again.
• Changes in regulation settings affect the ongoing AML monitoring search. Once new alerts are applied to an applicant profile, they might be declined according to the updated settings.

How it works

When enabled, Ongoing AML monitoring applies alerts to applicant profiles of any status, except those having final rejection, once the system receives the information about the changes associated with a particular profile.

Depending on the applicant status, there will be some variations of handling the applied matches:

• Applicants in the Required action status demand an assessment of each alert before making a final decision upon the profile.
• Any other statuses do not require additional actions.
