The Case for Sanctions Compliance

It is legally required to prevent processing transactions involving any individual or entity on a sanction list. Failure to comply can result in fines and reputational damage. Banking licenses may be revoked, and senior management can be held personally accountable.

Sanctions compliance poses challenges and costs due to transaction volume, complexity, increasing cross-border trade, and the adoption of the ISO 20022 standard. Since 90-99% of matches result in false positives, many financial institutions have significantly bolstered compliance resources in recent years.

Why Choose Bottomline for Sanctions Screening?

Screen All Relevant Fields Against Your Sanctions Lists

Utilise a straightforward configuration to screen all relevant fields (e.g., originator, beneficiary, counterparty, free text, BIC, account) in real time for every transaction based on the list provider(s) of your choice. This helps mitigate risk and prevent regulatory penalties.
