Sanctions screening, explained
The confirmed and partial name match reports on goAML, what they contain, the five-year look-back, and the immediate notice to the supervisor.
What sanctions screening involves
Targeted financial sanctions apply to every person in the UAE. The two lists, who must act, and the six steps from registering to keeping the proof.
Who to screen, and when
Four screening moments and the full list of names: customers, prospects, past customers, every party to a transaction, beneficial owners and agents.
Deciding the match
Confirmed, partial or false positive: how a hit is resolved, what to do while it is open, and the ten-day limit for a counterparty's documents.
Freezing without delay
What a confirmed match triggers: freeze everything within 24 hours, without notice, say nothing to the customer, and reject a prospect or counterparty.
