Sanctions Lists

Check if a person or organization is on the sanctions lists from the EU, UN or OFAC and financial connection is prohibited. To ensure that financial sanctions are complied with and enforced, financial institutions are required to consult the lists when conducting business.

The control is part of the know-your-customers process (KYC) and is mandatory, just like the requirement to check against PEP lists and whether a company has any beneficial owners. This affects all companies and businesses that fall under the requirements of the Money Laundering Act.

With Roaring's API, web service or monitoring services, you can ensure compliance, security in your business and avoid risk. Our service provides a complete sanctions list with data from FN, EU and OFAC.

Checks to ensure regulatory compliance

With our services, you can easily check if a person or company is on a sanctions list from the EU, UN or OFAC. These organizations put together these lists, listing individuals or organizations associated with money laundering, terrorist financing, corruption and terrorism.

Initiating a business relationship with individuals or organizations listed in a sanctions list is strictly prohibited. Furthermore, you must always report to the police if you are contacted by someone on a sanctions list. It is also a requirement to carry out a check against sanction lists in accordance with the Money Laundering Act.
