CDQ Compliance Screening automates the validation and updates for regulatory checks, so you can stay on top of compliance with ease.

No risk, no threat

Keep your business out of jail

Dealing with a sanctioned entity can have serious consequences for your business. Associating with a sanctioned entity can damage your reputation and brand image, which is becoming increasingly important to customers, investors, and partners.

But the risks don’t stop at the reputational level, but can impact individuals (freezing of assets, fines, getting sanctioned individually, or even imprisonment) and the whole company (assets freezing, fines, landing on a sanctions list or closing of business).

With CDQ you can safeguard your risk and compliance by smart master data management steps, proper due diligence and screening of your business partners against sanction-, watchlists, and PEP lists. Single or batch screening is crucial to maintaining accurate and up-to-date master data, and identifying and mitigating risks effectively.

By incorporating sanctions screening into your master data management processes, improve the quality of the name and identification data before being screened, to minimize false positives and time wasted by compliance experts. Don't let inaccuracies in your master data put your business in jeopardy. Take action now to safeguard your organization's future.
