#Sources

PEP data and more than 200 extra lists can be added through OpenSanctions. Adverse media screening searches news coverage for financial crime terms.

#Matching

Fuzzy name matching handles transliteration, spelling variants, initials and word order. Date of birth and nationality raise or lower the score. Set the match threshold (0 to 100) and choose whether a hit declines or goes to review.
