Sanctions & regulatory

Sanctions and regulatory exposure, checked for every person behind the company.

A sanctioned owner or a barred executive becomes your problem the day you sign. We check the company and each principal against sanctions lists and regulatory records, and an investigator confirms every match is the right person.

What it checks

The lists and records regulators expect you to have checked.

  • OFAC and global sanctions

    Sanctions lists for the entity and every owner and officer.

  • SAM.gov award check

    Exclusions from federal awards, which matter if you contract with the government.

  • SEC enforcement actions

    Enforcement history for the company and anyone who has raised or managed money.

  • FINRA and NFA

    Registrations, disciplinary history and bars in securities and futures.

  • Investment adviser records

    Adviser registrations and disclosures for firms and individuals.

  • Documented negatives

    Every list and record searched is listed with its date, so a clear result holds up too.

Questions

Sanctions and regulatory screening, answered.

Can we order sanctions checks on their own?

Sanctions and regulatory searches are part of every standard package. Tell us what you need when you open the case and we’ll scope it with you.

How do you handle a possible match?

An investigator compares identifiers and address history before anything is reported, so a shared name isn’t a finding.

Can you keep checking after the first report?

Yes. Continuous monitoring re-screens enrolled subjects daily against sanctions lists and alerts you to changes.
