What this covers
Screening obligations in this market
Screen, assess, document, and monitor against one transparent corpus — reframed to the authorities and statutes you answer to.
◧ ObligationScreen: two-list sanctions screening
Cabinet Decision No. 74 of 2020 requires reporting entities to freeze without delay against both the UN Consolidated List and the EOCN Local Terrorist List. Screen runs names against both, not just the UN baseline.
◧ ObligationAssess: PEP tiering and EDD
The risk-based customer due diligence carried through Federal Decree-Law No. 10 of 2025 and its executive regulations requires enhanced due diligence on politically exposed persons. Assess applies PEP tiering and an EDD report against our global PEP baseline so a hit is interpretable, not just returned.
◧ ObligationDocument: STR-ready audit trail
Reporting entities file suspicious transaction reports to the UAE FIU through the goAML platform when they have reasonable grounds to suspect proceeds of crime or terrorist financing. Document keeps the case, disposition, and audit trail behind that decision.
◧ ObligationMonitor: ongoing re-screening
The UAE's ongoing-monitoring duty means yesterday's clear name can become tomorrow's designation on either list. Monitor is where we're heading: re-screening the book of business as the UN Consolidated List and the EOCN Local Terrorist List change.
