AML Transaction Monitoring
Transaction monitoring is the real-time, continuous analysis of financial transactions to detect suspicious or anomalous activity that may be an indicator of money laundering or fraud.
Sanction Scanner's Transaction Monitoring solution automatically notifies companies of risky behavioral patterns to guarantee AML compliance and avert financial crime.
Financial regulatory authorities such as FATF, FinCEN, and the EU AMLD force financial institutions to monitor customer transactions and report anything suspicious.
Sanction Scanner assists compliance teams in identifying and investigating high-risk transactions in real time, reducing the risk of regulatory penalties and reputational loss.
Transaction monitoring systems analyze transaction data such as amount, frequency, location, and counterparty which is in real time to identify unusual activity.
Sanction Scanner provides a rule catalog where you can define and customize your own detection logic, with full API integration into your existing systems.
Common red flags include structuring, rapid or repeat transfers, large round-number transactions, and transfers to high-risk jurisdictions.
Sanction Scanner's analytics engine continuously monitors these patterns and generates instant alerts for further investigation.
Name screening mainly screens individuals and organizations against sanctions and watchlists during onboarding, while transaction monitoring actively watches customer activity on an ongoing basis for suspicious activity.
Together, these solutions form an end-to-end AML solution that delivers both initial and ongoing compliance.
FATF guidelines require institutions to perform risk-based monitoring, report Suspicious Activity Reports (SAR), and implement effective controls to identify unusual transactions.
Sanction Scanner helps organizations meet these global standards with customizable risk scoring, alert management, and automated reporting workflows.
