AML Commercial is a robust tool that confirms businesses and helps you meet your compliance and regulatory needs, including Customer Due Diligence, anti money laundering (commercial) and prevent fraud. Verifying a company and its leaders confirms its legitimacy and identifies any associated high-risks. We can help you build a deeper understanding of your commercial customers from the start of your relationship with them.
How It's Used
Facilitates regulatory compliance
Equifax Commercial AML verification interrogates a range of robust datasets and incorporates alert database screening to support your Customer Due Diligence.
Delivers traceable intelligence
Business entity verification uses data obtained directly from Companies House, courts, business directories and includes official public records from The Gazette.
Generates transparent outcomes
A 3-digit result coupled with a pass/fail outcome clearly displays the number of positive residency and identity checks you have achieved and also highlights the presence of alert risk indicators associated with a business.
Incorporates Equifax Watchlist Check
Worldwide watchlists data alongside financial crime analytics help to identify sanctioned companies or those categorised as Special Interest Entities (SIE) involved with high level crime, to help inform your regulatory and reputational considerations.
Regularly refreshed data
Data is refreshed daily in our real-time environments and weekly for our batch solution, to ensure matches are current and complete.
