Watch-List Filtering Vendor Evaluation: Separating the Wheat From the Chaff
Financial institutions need vendors committed to evolving and keeping pace with regulatory changes.
Boston, August 5, 2015 – The price of lax watch-list filtering can include multibillion-dollar fines, such as the US$8.97 billion penalty assessed against BNP Paribas in June 2014 for violating U.S. sanctions, not to mention reputational damage. These repercussions highlight the high stakes for institutions and the importance of effective watch-list filtering technology. What should institutions seek in the solutions that are required to accurately and efficiently perform watch-list filtering?
This report is based on 2014 and 2015 interviews with anti-money laundering executives at financial services firms.
