Undue diligence on counterparties can expose a company to lawsuits, regulatory fines and may entail legal proceedings against senior management.
Bad governance and corporate malpractice can lead to criticism from NGOs and erode a brand’s integrity.
We specialize in enhanced due diligence (EDD) in Switzerland and ensure Swiss corporates, financial institutions, independent asset managers, lawyers and fiduciaries make informed decisions when doing business with new customers and suppliers.
Background checks
In Switzerland, background checks on existing and prospective customers have gained in importance over the recent years and are not only limited to banks, but are also required from independent asset managers, fiduciaries and lawyers.
360 Screenings detects the following risk factors:
- Sanctions risks: global sanctions, bribery, corruption and crime screening, including OFAC, EU, UN, OFSI and watchlists issued by SECO (here)
- AML risks: financial crime and anti-money laundering checks, global coverage of PEPs, their relatives, close associates, related companies
- State-owned entities (SOEs): Entities owned by governments (and individuals serving on the board of such SEOs) are particularly vulnerable to corruption and money-laundering risks
- Negative news screening (NNS): based on 33,000+ news sources from over 200 countries in 60+ languages (all content is deduplicated to avoid going through long lists of similar articles)
- Registrations: entities registered with a government body such as a regulator
- Granular risk subcategories: lower-level classifications, PEP rating, predicate offenses, knowledge tags, risk codes
