Check sanctions / PEP / criminal records

Swiftly and thoroughly screen individuals or companies against global regulatory lists for enhanced due diligence and peace of mind.

The "Check Sanctions / PEP / Criminal Records" feature is a robust compliance tool designed to help users perform due diligence and risk assessments by screening entities against various sanctions, PEP, and criminal records databases. This service is essential for financial institutions, businesses, and other entities seeking to comply with international regulations and prevent engaging in relationships with high-risk or legally exposed individuals or companies.

Gatenox Hub offers two types of search:

Standard Search: Our standard search function offers quick and reliable screening against sanctions lists from multiple jurisdictions including OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control - USA), EU (European Union), UN (United Nations), UK (United Kingdom), PL (Poland), and Singapore.
Premium Service: For a more comprehensive global reach, the premium service extends searches to include a worldwide database of sanctions, PEP lists, and criminal records, providing an extra layer of security and compliance - mark "Extended check" to request premium service.

Important notes

Make sure the information you enter is accurate to ensure the accuracy of the search results.
Always review potential matches carefully and investigate any hits further before taking any action.
The standard search is generally faster but covers fewer databases. Use it for routine checks and when entities are expected to appear in the major sanctions lists.
The premium service is recommended for high-risk individuals, companies with global exposure, or when comprehensive due diligence is required.
After creating a new request, you will be redirected back to the list. All the filters will be clear and you can find your newly requested report at the top.
