Screen faster. Trust the result. Stay compliant.

Manual sanctions and PEP checks are slow, inconsistent and easy to fall behind on. AML Screening gives you an automated, continuously refreshed view of the financial crime risk sitting behind every counterparty, so your team can make confident decisions instead of chasing checks.

Protect Your Business

AML checks are a safeguard against becoming directly or indirectly caught up in criminal activity. Screening every counterparty as standard means financial crime risk is caught before it becomes your problem, not after.

Comply With International Law and Regulatory Obligations

Comply With International Law and Regulatory Obligations

Automatically screen any business and its officers against international sanctions lists, PEPs and adverse media. Meet your anti-money laundering obligations without building and maintaining the process yourself.

Reduce False Positives, Stay Current

Reduce False Positives, Stay Current

Automated matching cuts down the noise so your team reviews genuine risk, not a wall of irrelevant hits. The REG Network continually re-screens your connections, so a clean result today does not go stale tomorrow.

Step-by-Step "How It Works"

Manual, point-in-time sanctions checks leave gaps the moment they are run. AML Screening replaces that with continuous, automated coverage, from first connection to ongoing monitoring.
 

Step One

Connect to a Company

Connect to any company, anywhere in the world, using the REG Network.

Step Two

Add Contact Details

Add contact information for the connection if the company is not yet registered with REG.

Step 3

Receive Matches Instantly

Instantaneously receive matches for Sanctions, PEPs and Adverse Media against the company and its officers.

Step 4

Make a Risk-Based Decision

Review the results and make a risk-based decision on the AML exposure of your trading partner.

Step 4

Stay Monitored

REG Network monitors your connections on a continuous basis, so you are alerted the moment something changes.

Built on Real-Time Coverage, Verified Sources and Automation

AML Screening

Real-Time and Continuous Surveillance

A sanctions or PEP check is only accurate at the moment it is run. Static, point-in-time screening leaves a gap between checks that a manual process cannot close, and that gap is exactly where risk goes unnoticed. AML Screening replaces the single check with constant monitoring, so your compliance controls stay tight for the life of the relationship, not just at onboarding. Rather than relying on someone remembering to re-run a check, the REG Network does it continuously in the background and surfaces a change the moment it happens.

AML Screening

Verified and In-Depth

Every match is drawn from thorough, diligent screening across multiple secure sources covering sanctions lists, PEP registers and adverse media, not a single feed that may be incomplete or out of date. That depth matters when a regulator asks how a decision was reached. You are not relying on one data point, you have a verified, defensible picture of the risk a counterparty presents, built from sources your compliance team can stand behind.

AML Screening

Automated and Centralised

Screening results, alerts and supporting data live in one place instead of being scattered across inboxes, spreadsheets and separate tools. Automated matching filters out irrelevant noise so your team spends time on genuine risk decisions, not manually reviewing false positives. The result is faster decisions and compliance resource freed up for the judgement calls that actually need it, not administrative overhead.

Stay Ahead of Your AML Obligations

Faster onboarding, smarter assessment and safer oversight. AML Screening puts you in control of financial crime risk without slowing your business down.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a Declaration on the REG Network?

A Declaration is a verified statement of a company’s Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBOs) and/or Directors & Officers, completed directly by an official at that company and shared with you in real time through the REG Network.

Who completes a UBO and Directors & Officers declaration?

A verified official at the company you’re connected with completes the declaration, so the information comes directly from the source rather than a third-party register.

Does Declarations replace the need for further due diligence?

No. A declaration confirms who the UBOs, Directors and Officers are, but it’s a starting point rather than a full risk assessment. From there, you can run further checks such as Sanctions and PEPs screening and Adverse Media Screening, and apply enhanced due diligence where the relationship warrants it.

How often are my connections’ declarations re-checked?

The REG Network uses automated, system-driven reminders to prompt your connections to re-confirm their declarations. Exactly how often this happens varies, based on factors such as the counterparty’s country and whether you’re using REG Risk 365 for more configurable, continuous monitoring.

How does Declarations help with AML and Consumer Duty obligations?

By replacing outdated registers with current, verified data, Declarations gives you an audit trail of who owns and runs the companies you trade with, supporting your ongoing anti-money laundering monitoring and wider Consumer Duty and Fair Value obligations.

What does AML Screening check for?

AML Screening checks a company and its officers against international sanctions lists, PEPs registers and adverse media, giving you a real-time view of financial crime risk before and during a business relationship.

How often is a connection re-screened?

The REG Network continually re-screens your connections, so results stay current without you needing to manually re-run checks or set calendar reminders.

Does AML Screening replace my compliance team’s judgement?

No. AML Screening surfaces matches and risk indicators, but the decision on how to act on a match, including whether further due diligence is required, remains with your compliance team.

How does REG handle false positives?

Automated matching is designed to reduce false positives, and the REG Data Team supports ongoing management of matches, so your team reviews genuine risk rather than irrelevant noise.

Is AML Screening included in REG Network, or is it a separate cost?

AML Screening is included as part of your REG Network subscription. There is no separate product to buy.

How does AML Screening fit alongside Declarations?

AML Screening tells you whether a company or its officers present a financial crime risk. Declarations tells you who those officers and Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBOs) actually are. Used together, you get a verified picture of who you are dealing with and whether they present a risk.

Stay Ahead of Your AML Obligations

Faster onboarding, smarter assessment and safer oversight. AML Screening puts you in control of financial crime risk, backed by a team who can talk you through exactly how it fits your business.
