Screen customers and vendors against US sanctions. OFAC SDN. Sectoral. Country.
OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control) administers US economic sanctions. The SDN (Specially Designated Nationals) list, sectoral sanctions, and country programs prohibit US persons from doing business with sanctioned parties. Violations carry strict-liability civil penalties (up to $250K+ per transaction or 2x transaction value) and potential criminal charges. We screen at onboarding, monitor changes, and re-screen periodically.
How we handle OFAC Screening, end-to-end.
OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control) administers US economic sanctions.
Initial screening
We screen your existing customer and vendor list against the OFAC SDN list, sectoral sanctions, country programs, and consolidated US lists. Exact-match and fuzzy-match (handles transliteration variations).
Onboarding integration
API integration with your customer onboarding system (Stripe, Plaid, your CRM) to screen at signup. Blocked matches stop the onboarding immediately.
Periodic re-screening
OFAC lists update frequently. We re-screen your customer and vendor base quarterly (or monthly for high-risk industries) and alert on new matches.
Match adjudication
Every match triggers manual review. Most matches are false positives (common names). We help adjudicate and document the review for audit purposes.
