Uniquely SmartSearch automatically performs Sanction & PEP (SIPs & RCAs optional) checks each time a new customer is entered in to the system. Thereafter SmartSearch monitors all our Client’s customers for changes to Sanctions & PEPs for the lifetime of their service agreement.
When a Sanction or PEP match occurs the “Interactive Alerts Service” performs automated Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) and despatches an email alert to confirm a false positive match has occurred. On rare occasions manual EDD is required and in this scenario SmartSearch provides all the necessary Biography Information, Adverse Media and Photographic Evidence to enable our Clients to discharge their obligations in a matter of minutes.
Our typical Clients verify their customers electronically without the need for ID Documents saving them each year around £23,000; 25 weeks in staff days and 14 years waiting for customer ID documents. That’s why amazingly 1 in 4 Top Accountants has adopted SmartSearch for their AML Compliance.
SmartSearch is unique; beware of cheap imitations they are likely to cost you much more!!
