PEPs and Sanctions as part of a KYC

A brief tutorial on how you can run a PEPs and Sanctions check on an already processed verification. You may want to run this kind of check because you want to obtain a more detailed result or you want to run this check as part of your Ongoing Customer Due Diligence (OCDD) process.

To run a PEPs and Sanctions check on an already existing verification (KYC), follow the steps below:

  1. Go to KYC > Results > Individual and click on the name of the individual you want to re-screen; 
  2. In the right slider, click on the "Show details" button; 
  3. Select the PEPs & Sanctions tab and click "Screen now"
  4. The results will be displayed on the page. The lists where the individual, an individual with a similar name, or an associate of the individual appear will be coloured red. The lists where the individual does not appear will be coloured green;
  5. Click on the red lists to obtain more detailed information about the data that was matched.

To view a detailed description of why someone appears on a PEPs or Sanctions list, follow the steps below: 

  1. Open the desired list coloured in red by clicking on the down arrow; 
  2. Click on the names that were matched on this list;
  3. Read the description of the lists and the data that was matched. 

Note: The personal information of the individuals listed in the results may not match the exact details of the submitted individual. This can be due to several reasons: 

  • bronID uses fuzzy matching, i.e. the names do not have to match exactly, and similar names may show as false positives
  • the submitted name is an alias;
  • the matched individuals may be relatives or associates of the submitted individual; 
  • the matched individuals may be related to the submitted individual by means of contracts, legal arrangement etc.; 
  • the match is a false positive
