AML screening

Screen a person or company against global sanctions, PEP and watchlist sources, step by step from login to the finished report.

IzzyTap gives you two ways to run an AML check: the full screening workspace and the quick AML tab on a company. Here is what each does and when to use it.

A plain-English reference for every AML status and coloured pill: Not screened, Clear, Potential match, Cleared, Escalated, the risk levels, and the officer approval labels.

Understand the verdict, work through each alert, refer the file to your compliance officer and download the PDF, all from one screening page.

The five ways to close an AML alert (Confirmed match, Probable match, Unresolved, Probable false positive and False positive), when each one applies, and why every disposition needs a written reason that prints on the report.

How IzzyTap safely clears the obvious non-matches for you using a conflicting date of birth or nationality, why duplicate records are grouped into one, why sanctions alerts are never cleared automatically, and how to open the alerts it disposed of.

Why an AML screening on a common name can bring back a huge number of alerts, why most of them are different people, and how adding a date of birth and nationality cuts the list down to what actually matters.

What the Exact match, Strong match and Similar name labels mean, how the name match percentage is worked out, and why only the closest 30 records are detailed on the report while the rest are forwarded for review.

Where to read the adverse-media section of a screening, the six risk categories it covers, and why news coverage is a signal to review, not proof.

How the None, Low, Medium and High risk level on a screening is worked out from the kind of matches found and any adverse media, and why it is not the same as the alert count.

Add an AML compliance officer to your team, save a default officer email so referrals prefill, and understand what that officer can and cannot see.

Send a completed screening to a compliance officer who has no login. They get the report PDF plus a secure link that can only approve or decline that one screening.
