How It Works

From Name to Decision in Seconds

Three steps from initial search to continuous compliance. Once a customer is in the system, monitoring happens automatically.

1

Search

Enter a name or entity and select the watchlist categories and data level that fit your compliance requirements.

2

Screen

MemberCheck searches across global PEP lists, sanctions registers, and adverse media sources. Matches are ranked by confidence so your team knows where to focus.

3

Monitor

Every customer in your database is re-screened daily. If a risk profile changes, your team gets notified straight away.

Compliance professionals reviewing screening documentation

From first search to continuous compliance.

Once a customer profile is created, MemberCheck re-screens it daily and alerts your team when anything changes. No manual checking required.

Platform Capabilities

What Makes MemberCheck Different

The tools compliance teams rely on to keep screening accurate, consistent, and well-documented.

Intelligent Parameters

Set your own scan parameters and choose the watchlist categories that reflect your organisation's risk appetite and the regulations you operate under.

Ongoing Monitoring

MemberCheck re-screens your customer base every day. When something changes, your team gets an alert. No one needs to check manually.

Batch File Processing

Run a quick check on a single name or upload your full customer list at once. Either way, results come back fast.

API Integration

Use the MemberCheck API to run screening checks from within your own systems. Results come back in real time so your onboarding process keeps moving.

Comprehensive Reporting

Download screening reports in PDF, Word, or Excel whenever you need them — for KYC files, internal records, and regulatory review.

Entity Whitelisting

Mark confirmed false positives and MemberCheck will filter them out of future scans automatically. Less noise, more time on the risks that matter.

Ongoing Monitoring

Screening Once Is Not Enough

Risk doesn't stand still. Sanctions lists change. Politicians leave office or face investigation. Adverse media surfaces without warning. MemberCheck checks every customer in your database every day, so you don't have to.

Prioritise High-Risk Customers

Your highest-risk customers get flagged first. Automated risk tiering means your team focuses on what matters rather than working through a flat list of alerts.

A Compliance Programme That Fits

Set monitoring schedules and alert thresholds that work for your organisation. Not every client needs the same level of scrutiny.

Rescreen Anytime

Existing clients can be rescreened on demand or automatically whenever their profile information is updated.

Decisions Backed by Data

Every match includes detailed source information and a confidence score, so your team has the context to make a clear call.

Lower Cost, Same Standard

Daily automated screening replaces what used to be a time-consuming manual process. Compliance costs go down without the risk going up.

Know the Basics

Understanding PEPs and Sanctions

Effective compliance starts with a clear understanding of who and what you are screening against. PEPs and sanctioned parties carry different risk profiles and require different responses from your compliance team.

Regulatory bodies and financial institutions operate under the same global frameworks

What is a Politically Exposed Person (PEP)?

A Politically Exposed Person is someone who holds or has held a senior public role in government, a state-owned body, or an international organisation. This includes NGO and charity executives. Family members and close associates of PEPs are also captured within most regulatory definitions.

  • Senior Politicians
  • High Ranking Military Officials
  • High Ranking Judges
  • Board Members of Multinational Corporations
  • NGO Executives
  • Not-for-Profit Executives
  • Charity Executives

What are Sanctions?

Sanctions are legal restrictions imposed by bodies such as the United Nations Security Council and national governments. They apply to specific countries, individuals, and companies identified as posing a risk, including those linked to terrorism, financial crime, or state-sponsored aggression. Businesses that transact with sanctioned parties face serious legal consequences, whether or not they were aware of the designation.

How Should Businesses Approach Sanctions Compliance?

Every business that handles financial transactions has a responsibility to check whether their customers or counterparties appear on a sanctions list. A sanctions programme does not need to be complex, but it does need to be consistent, documented, and kept up to date.

  • Check every customer and counterparty when they first come on board
  • Keep monitoring those relationships as lists and profiles change over time
  • Maintain a clear record of every check you run and the decision you made
  • Make sure your screening covers the countries and lists most relevant to your business
  • Where possible, build screening into your onboarding process so nothing gets missed

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Politically Exposed Person (PEP)?
A Politically Exposed Person is an individual who holds or has held a prominent public function — such as a head of state, senior politician, judge, military officer, or executive of a state-owned enterprise. Their position creates a higher risk of involvement in bribery or corruption, so financial institutions are required to apply enhanced due diligence when onboarding or monitoring them.
What is the difference between a PEP and a sanctioned individual?
A PEP is flagged due to their political position and elevated corruption risk, but is not necessarily prohibited from doing business. A sanctioned individual or entity is subject to legal restrictions — their assets may be frozen and businesses are legally prohibited from transacting with them. Both require screening, but sanctioned individuals trigger mandatory action while PEPs require enhanced due diligence.
Which sanctions lists does MemberCheck screen against?
MemberCheck screens against 1,500+ global watchlists including OFAC (SDN and Consolidated Lists), the UN Security Council Consolidated List, EU Financial Sanctions List, HM Treasury (UK), AUSTRAC, FinCEN, DFAT, and SECO, along with hundreds of national and regional sanctions regimes across 250+ countries.
How often is watchlist data updated?
Watchlist data is updated in real time as new designations, amendments, and removals are published by sanctioning authorities. MemberCheck monitors primary sources continuously so your screening results always reflect the current state of each list — not a daily or weekly batch.
What happens when a potential match is found?
When a potential match is identified, MemberCheck flags the result with a match score and the specific watchlists involved. Your compliance team reviews the alert, applies your risk-based assessment, and decides whether to escalate, accept, or reject the match. All decisions and supporting evidence are logged for audit purposes.
Is PEP screening a legal requirement?
Yes. FATF Recommendation 12 requires financial institutions to apply enhanced due diligence to PEPs and their close associates. This obligation is reflected in AML/CTF legislation across all FATF member countries, including AUSTRAC requirements in Australia, the Bank Secrecy Act in the US, and equivalent laws in the UK, EU, Singapore, and other jurisdictions.
