Customer Risk Assessment
Customer Risk Assessment refers to evaluating the probability of each customer being involved in money laundering or illicit financial activities. This entails evaluating the type of business, location, patterns of transactions, and the origin of funds. Considering all these factors, the CRA module of Sanction Scanner calculates and adjusts risk scores dynamically, and maintains constant updates to customer information.
It allows entities to apply appropriate due diligence, allocate compliance funds optimally, and satisfy all the conditions set under AML laws. With Sanction Scanner, financial organizations seamlessly spot high-risk customers, perform Enhanced Due Diligence, and ensure alignment with the AMLD standards of FATF and the EU.
In most cases the type of customer, country of the customer, pattern of transactions, origin of funds, business sector, and any PEP affiliation are all considered when assessing risk. With the help of configurable fields and risk based external data sources (databases of sanctions and PEPs) Sanction Scanner provides accurate scores.
Customers are broadly categorized into three distinct risk levels: low, medium, and high. This classification considers a customer's risk geography, the industry they operate in, the volume of transactions, and any potential exposure to sanctions. Sanction Scanner's dashboard helps teams monitor and prioritize cases by visualizing risk levels in real-time.
Due diligence is influenced greatly by the risk level attributed to a customer. Sanction Scanner streamlines the process by filing customers under Simplified Due Diligence and Enhanced Due Diligence based on the customer's active risk profile.
Absolutely, risk levels can change if a customer's activity, geography, or ownership changes. Ongoing monitoring helps Sanction Scanner refine the customer profile and keeps risk scores accurate to real-world changes.
Automation cuts down on repeated tasks, lessening the strain of manual workload. Sanction Scanner uses automation to score customer risk, provides AI-powered risk assessments, and dynamically updates risk assessments and scores in real-time if risk changes.
Dynamic risk scoring is the automated process of updating the customer's risk levels.
With Sanction Scanner's dynamic rule engine, Compliance Officers can define thresholds and scenarios in countless ways, building rules as naturally as writing a sentence.
Outdated assessments can lead to penalties, compliance cases and reputational damage easily. Sanction Scanner minimizes these exposures with automated scoring, reassessment, and risk level change alerts.
