What screening categories and datasets are available in Pascal
Screening categories and Dataset breakdown
Pascal's Screening categories are divided into four main groups, each aligned with specific compliance objectives:- Regulatory Watchlists - Datasets: Insight: Sanctions, Insight: Enforcements, Data Directory
Sanctions
Sanctions are penalties issued by a government imposed as a tool to enforce compliance or influencing behaviour. Sanction screening aids in identifying individuals or entities subject to economic sanctions, enabling compliance with legal obligations and preventing unauthorized transactions with sanctioned parties.
Enforcements
Enforcements ensure compliance to laws and rules through penalties for non-compliance. Enforcement screening plays a vital role in identifying and assessing legal restrictions and penalties applicable to individuals or entities, ensuring compliance and minimizing potential legal risks. - PEPs (Politically Exposed Persons) - Datasets: Insight: PEPs, AM AI PEP, Info4c, Data Directory
A PEP (Politically Exposed Person) is an individual who is or has been entrusted with a prominent public function or is closely associated with someone in such a position. PEP screening helps identify individuals with prominent political positions or connections, enabling enhanced due diligence measures to prevent corruption, bribery, and illicit financial activities. - Media - Dataset: Insight: Media
Adverse and negative media screening plays a crucial role in identifying negative news or information about individuals or entities, enabling proactive risk assessment, reputation management, and fraud prevention. - Other - Dataset: Insight: ICIJ
Screening on non-categorisable datasets plays a vital role in gathering comprehensive information, enabling a holistic view of risk and facilitating effective risk management and control measures.
Screening categories can be enabled or disabled at any time. After modifying them, the changes apply to all existing and future cases.
Changing Screening categories is only possible with an Owner or Billing manager role.
