Why Insurance Companies Choose Alessa for Sanctions Screening
Screen Against the Latest Global Sanctions, Watchlists and PEP Lists
An effective sanctions screening software needs the most up-to-date information. Powered by RZOLUT, Alessa utilizes global sanctions lists, politically exposed persons (PEP) lists, internal lists, adverse media and watchlists, all updated daily, to ensure your screening program is populated with the latest, most accurate data. Alessa’s full coverage and timely updates give your business assurance that it’s not conducting business with risky entities.
Real-Time and Periodic Screening
With Alessa, entities can be screened in three ways: real-time, periodically or on-demand. Real-time sanctions screening is ideal for onboarding and verification processes that require an immediate response. Periodic screening allows insurance businesses to screen or re-screen any number of clients on a schedule or in response to changing information. Your compliance team can also run on-demand screening whenever necessary.
Proprietary PEP Scoring That Reduces False Positives
Our proprietary PEP Scoring Model categorizes, and scores matches, allowing you to focus on high-risk PEPs. Medium and low-risk PEPs can be auto-resolved or placed in a workflow for your manual review. On average, this method reduces your daily PEP-related workload by as much as 50%. With less time spent reviewing false positives, your compliance team can focus on other key areas of compliance.
Reduced Sanctions and PEP Screening Costs
Pay only for the screening data you use. We won’t charge you for bundled sanctions lists that aren’t relevant to your screening needs. We provide a targeted, cost-effective screening solution that saves your firm up to 40% compared to other screening data providers.
Ongoing Support and Expertise
With Alessa, your team will benefit from continuous expert guidance and ongoing support. Our Support Team and RegTech experts help to ensure your AML program remains robust and compliant.
Insightful Watchlist and Sanctions Screening Software for the Insurance Industry
Alessa uses current sanction lists, OFAC, law enforcement, PEPs, adverse media, crypto, and your own internal high-risk lists to provide expansive insights into the risks associated with any customer or entity.
How Does Our PEP Scoring Work?
It’s simple.
Each night Alessa runs your client list against the latest PEP lists and assigns an updated risk score to any PEP in your database. The PEPs whose scores surpass your organization’s risk tolerance are then highlighted and brought to your team’s attention for investigation.
Alessa can either auto-resolve low and/or medium risk PEP alerts or create a separate work queue for lower risk alerts based on your organization’s risk preference.
