Adverse Media Screening & Monitoring

Adverse media screening is monitoring worldwide news, blogs and reports to discover negative information on a person or organization that may be linked to financial crime.

Sanction Scanner does this automatically by monitoring thousands of worldwide sources in real-time to help business stay on its toes against hidden risks.

Adverse media screening helps banks meet FATF, FinCEN and EU AML laws by alerting on reputational and criminal risk at the early stage.

Sanction Scanner is a reputational risk radar that helps compliance teams detect and report problems before they result in regulatory problems.

It continuously tracks global sources such as news sites, blogs, and public databases for identifying negative coverage regarding specific entities or individuals.

Sanction Scanner works on an artificial intelligence engine that checks more than 400 reliable sources and provides real-time risk profiles with automated notifications.

PEP and sanctions screening screen lists in a systematic way, while adverse media screening identifies true content that reveals exposures before they are on any official list.

Sanction Scanner encompasses all three modules to give an end-to-end view of risk and allow businesses to detect possible threats earlier.

Adverse media detects possible associations with fraud, corruption, money laundering, terror and other crimes against reputation.

Sanction Scanner categorizes every alert by risk level and severity, so teams only work on the most urgent cases.

Yes. Ongoing Monitoring will automatically notify your team when new negative news emerges about an individual or business.

The Ongoing Monitoring feature of Sanction Scanner provides real-time alerts and minimizes the requirement for manual checks.

Checks should be performed when customers are being onboarded and then on a recurring basis to determine new risks.

Sanction Scanner allows you to automatically re-screen so your information is always up to date and compliant.

False positives occur when the incorrect unrelated names are matched. AI filters use sophisticated identifiers such as date of birth, nationality and document numbers to make it more accurate.

Sanction Scanner reduces false positives by more than 96.99% through context-aware name matching and multi-layered identity verification.

Banks, fintech companies, crypto exchanges and insurers use adverse media screening to find high-risk individuals and entities.

More than a decade of industries use Sanction Scanner to reveal hidden risks, build customer trust and implement strong compliance programs.

Sanction Scanner's single-platform AML platform includes adverse media screening in conjunction with sanctions, watchlist and PEP screening.

Each module communicates with the others inside a single system to provide complete automation and global coverage.

Integration allows compliance departments to start using adverse media screening without changing their existing processes.

Sanction Scanner's API-first approach can connect seamlessly with CRM, core banking and case management systems for seamless automation.

Yes. Our platform indexes media in 55+ languages, ensuring global and regional risks are not missed during screening.
Absolutely. It flags clients linked to environmental crimes, labor violations, or political scandals“supporting broader risk management.
Yes. Sanction Scanner enables real-time API integration into digital onboarding, eKYC platforms, and customer due diligence workflows”so risk indicators from media coverage are flagged before account creation or client approval. This improves decision-making without delaying user experience.
