Automated PEP detection with match context, right where analysts work.

Where it Helps

The PEP Screening agent uses AI to automatically check subjects against politically exposed persons data during onboarding and transaction monitoring investigations. Analysts see potential matches with supporting context in seconds, without leaving the case. Match confidence and supporting details are generated automatically, so analysts spend their time confirming rather than searching. Higher-risk decisions move faster without added manual work.

Key Capabilities

Automated PEP Lookup

The agent checks each subject against PEP data automatically at onboarding and during investigations, no manual search required.

Match Confidence Scoring

Each potential match is scored for confidence, helping analysts prioritize true matches over coincidental name hits.

Match Context Summaries

The agent surfaces position, jurisdiction, and relationship details behind each match so analysts can assess risk quickly.

Family and Close Associate Coverage

Matches extend beyond the subject to flag known relatives and close associates where relevant.

Queue-Aware Triggers

The agent runs automatically at the right point in onboarding or TM workflows, based on queue configuration.

Configurable Risk Thresholds

Admins set match sensitivity and risk tiers to align with the program's risk appetite.
