Add companies or upload portfolios
Screen a single company or upload lists of counterparties to screen at scale. Business Radar supports company names, corporate identifiers and DUNS numbers for accurate entity recognition.
Sanctions, Enforcement & PEP Screening
Due diligence screening for companies and individuals across sanctions lists, PEP data and enforcement records, extended with a growing set of curated data sources and powered by our own compliance database. Accurate, explained and traceable results.
Screening and monitoring counterparties
Screen companies and individuals during onboarding and continue monitoring them over time. Business Radar maintains its own compliance database and continuously tracks new entries, updates and developments across sanctions, enforcement and global media sources, so changes in risk exposure are captured as they occur.
Screening capabilities
Screen companies and individuals
Run checks on both companies and standalone individuals across sanctions lists, PEP data and enforcement records, extended with sources such as the Offshore Leaks database, court cases and adverse media.
Expand beyond a single company
Screening connects to broader corporate networks, so subsidiaries, parent companies and ultimate owners are covered, not just the name you enter. Screen entire portfolios in just a few clicks.
Accurate, verified and explained
Matches are validated and enriched with entity data. AI-rated false positives include visible reasoning and can be overridden, with every decision logged in the audit trail.
Built for reliable due diligence screening
Accurate entity resolution
Companies and individuals are matched using trade names, aliases, identifiers and contextual data to reduce incorrect matches. Company data stays current through our Dun & Bradstreet partnership, including continuous monitoring of director changes.
Curated and continuously updated data
Sanctions, PEP and government-linked entity data acquired through our own compliance database, updated as list changes occur rather than on a third-party vendor refresh cycle. Screening extends beyond the core lists to sources such as the Offshore Leaks database and court cases from official registries, and the source set grows continuously, driven by careful assessments.
Validated screening results
Signals are reviewed and enriched before reaching analysts, reducing noise and improving result quality.
Context included by default
Results are enriched with company data, including directors, beneficial owners and corporate structures, so findings can be assessed without additional research.
Transparent evaluation and auditability
The audit trail includes risk signal scores per category (compliance, country, activity, PEP, sanctions, adverse media), a full screening breakdown per entity, AI review notes with confidence levels, and reviewer notes and decisions.
Entity matching you can trust
A list hit is only useful if it refers to the right entity. Matches are resolved using trade names, aliases, transliterations and corporate identifiers, so a similar name on a sanctions list does not become a false alarm and a name spelled differently does not slip through.
Screening across corporate structures
Risk rarely sits only at the legal entity you screen. Subsidiaries, parent companies and ultimate owners are connected to the right profile, so exposure through ownership and control is visible.
Access through platform or API
Screen and review in the platform, or integrate via API with webhooks for real-time notifications when checks complete or new results arrive, a company match endpoint, and a Python SDK.
Find out what solution is the best for your business
Screening that follows your risk appetite
Your organisation defines the risk appetite. Business Radar enforces it, for every screening and every analyst.
You choose what to screen and monitor
Select the sanction lists, entity types and risk themes that fall within your scope, and exclude what does not. Screening reflects your compliance framework, not a vendor default.
Consistent for every analyst
Matching rules and review settings are configured once at organisation level. Every screening runs to the same standard, so outcomes do not depend on who performs the check.
Review queues your team can clear
Stricter matching rules for persons and automatic handling of AI-rated false positives keep irrelevant hits out of the queue, so analysts spend their time on genuine risk instead of noise.
Case management built in
Every screening becomes a documented case. Analysts record decisions and notes on compliance results, tag colleagues, and track review status in the organisation-wide compliance overview. The full history lands in the audit trail, so cases are worked, resolved and evidenced in one place.

Frequently Asked Questions about Compliance screening with Business Radar
What do you screen against?
The core of every screening is sanctions lists, PEP data and enforcement records, drawn from our own compliance database. Around that core, screening extends to additional sources such as the Offshore Leaks database, court cases from official registries and curated global media coverage. New data sources are added regularly, driven by what our customers need to screen against, and each addition is reviewed for reliability and relevance before it goes live. You control which lists and sources are in scope through your compliance settings.
How quickly are sanctions list changes reflected?
Sanctions and enforcement lists are monitored daily. If a monitored entity is added, removed or updated on a list, the alert reaches you the same day. There is no waiting for a weekly batch or your next periodic review cycle.
How do you avoid matching the wrong company or person?
Entities are matched using trade names, identifiers such as DUNS numbers, and contextual data rather than name similarity alone. Signals are then validated and enriched with entity data to confirm they refer to the correct company or individual before reaching your team. This is how we get to a 90% reduction in false positives.
Can we screen our whole portfolio at once?
Yes. Upload a list of counterparties and screen at scale against 135M+ global company records. Business Radar supports company names and corporate identifiers for accurate entity recognition, and screened entities stay under monitoring afterwards so new developments are captured automatically.
How are results documented for audit?
Every result is traceable: source data, entity context, corporate relationships and audit logs showing how matches were assessed. Findings are enriched with company context by default, so most results can be assessed without additional research, and the full trail supports internal audit and regulatory review.
How is this different from a traditional database?
Traditional providers maintain a curated database of profiles, which means you only see risks once an analyst has written them up. Business Radar combines list screening with live media monitoring, so signals surface as they happen rather than after they've been catalogued. And because we screen unstructured sources directly, coverage extends to unlisted and smaller companies that rarely make it into curated databases.
Can we adapt screening to our own risk appetite?
Yes. You define what is screened and monitored: which sanction lists are in scope, how strictly persons are matched, and whether AI-rated false positives appear in review. Settings apply organisation-wide, so every analyst screens to the same standard.
