FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is name screening software mandatory in the UAE?+
The law requires you to screen customers and beneficial owners against sanctions lists and to rescreen when those lists change. Software is not named in the law, but for any meaningful client base it is the only realistic way to meet that obligation accurately and on time.
Which lists must we screen against?+
At minimum the UN Security Council Consolidated List and the UAE Local Terrorist List, with PEP and adverse-media screening strongly advised for a risk-based approach. We configure the tool to cover the required lists and the ones your risk profile demands.
How often should we rescreen existing customers?+
Continuously or whenever the relevant lists are updated, because a customer can become listed after onboarding. Good software rescreens automatically against list changes; we set that up so you are never relying on manual periodic checks alone.
What do we do when the software flags a match?+
You assess whether it is a false positive, a partial match or a confirmed match, then act — a PNMR for a partial match, or a freeze and FFR for a confirmed one. We build that decision workflow around the tool so alerts lead to the right action.
