Adverse Media
What we deliver.
How we work.
Risk appetite & scope
We define which media types, jurisdictions and customer segments require adverse media screening for KYC and ongoing monitoring.
Workflow design
We structure search, triage, true-positive disposition and EDD escalation into a repeatable, supervisor-ready process — aligned with CDD investigations and PEP/sanctions screening.
Calibration
We tune source lists, language coverage and false-positive rates against your portfolio and risk appetite.
Assurance & handover
We document rationale, sample-test cases and train analysts so the workflow holds under audit and NBB/CSSF review.
