Napier's screening software for KYC

AML regulations require organisations to screen customers as part of KYC checks at onboarding. Our client screening software enables regulated organisations to screen their clients against any variation of list including PEPs and sanctions lists from multiple bodies such as OFAC, the UN and the EU to ensure full protection from regulatory breaches and fines.  

Screening tools for KYC and AML

Screening tools facilitate KYC checks at onboarding, client screening, and transaction screening, to help organisations comply with regulations.

Client screening tools for banks help to ensure that during the KYC and onboarding process, customers are not on a sanctions list, or have records of adverse media against them that may, expose the organisation to financial crime risks.

Napier Client Screening solution facilitates ongoing screening and can be carried out daily to give organisations reassurance about who their customers are.

Transaction screening is also important to ensure organisations do not engage in business with an organisation or individual who may be sanctioned or on a watchlist. Transaction screening occurs at the point of receiving or sending a payment.

DETAIL

Client Screening
Command Centre

Napier’s Client Screening Command Centre gives compliance team leaders a top-down view of key screening activity and team workflow progress on a single dashboard.

Team leaders can easily see current screening configurations and history; and view customers that are creating the most alerts.

The Command Centre also provides a graphical view of team activity and workflows - highlighting any issues with backlog, workload and performance.

Intelligence Data Explorer

The Intelligence Data Explorer makes relevant intelligence data easily consumable and quickly accessible to team members.

A graphical timeline allows users to view a customer’s history at a glance to make informed decisions about their matching and resolution history.

Highly efficient alert
review process

The system automatically highlights data for review so analysts can see at a glance what needs to be investigated.

Furthermore, analysts can explore all customer and intelligence data in a single page, removing the need to switch between windows or systems.

Bulk operations and keyboard shortcuts make workflows easier to manage by shortening the time it takes to conduct a review.

Enhanced matching capabilities

Natural language processing and advanced matching algorithms reduce volumes of false positives significantly, enabling analysts to focus on alerts that need investigation.

The matching engine in Napier Client Screening boasts robust cross-language support and a linguistic knowledge matching capability to support 18 languages including simplified Chinese and Arabic.  

The system automatically suggests matches on entities that would have previously been missed due to localisation, nicknames and synonyms, improving the alert rate.

Integrated sandbox to test screening configurations

Unique to Napier, the integrated sandbox allows users to fine-tune screening configurations based on results from actual data, before committing changes to the live environment.

This allows users to understand the impact any changes will have and offers direct comparison with the current configuration.

AI Advisor

AI Advisor helps analysts to review alerts faster by identifying false positives in customer screening. Using artificial intelligence to analyse matches, AI Advisor supports a rule-based approach and offers insights to help the analyst in the decision-making process.

AI Advisor provides the key factors that were influential generating its insights in plain terms. This ensures users can understand why an alert has been created, enabling them to make informed decisions on the quality of the match.

The additional insights from AI Advisor, which analyses multiple variables over and above the rules criteria, help to reduce false positives further, by up to 40%. This is a time-saving benefit that significantly enhances the existing rates of up to 80% false positive reduction that our screening solutions offer if used without AI Advisor.

Worry-free list management

Sanctions lists can change on a daily basis, and one list update can involve dozens or even hundreds of changes.

With Napier Client Screening, list updates are fully managed, including quality checks.

Users can select which lists they want applied to their screening. In addition to public sanctions lists, users can maintain their own private lists and individual whitelists can be created to reduce the volume of alerts received.

“As financial services becomes more complex, it is critical to have a solid and future-proofed AML platform for the most rigorous compliance. Napier’s solution has additional capabilities for when we need them, and the full managed service means huge savings in time and effort for our IT team.”

Regulations
What is a Sanctions List?

A sanctions list is a record that is typically published online of the countries, regimes, groups, and individuals who are currently subject to sanctions. It is a requirement for every citizen and business to comply with sanctions, and screening against sanctions lists from applicable sanctioning bodies is one way to ensure due diligence is observed.

Technology
What is machine learning?

Machine learning is currently the most well-known form of artificial intelligence. It provides systems with the ability to automatically learn and improve from experience, without the need for explicit programming and with minimal human intervention.
