To disrupt terrorist funding, Siron™ Embargo screens transactions in real-time by matching sender and recipient data with sanction lists. Numerous national and international sanction lists are used, including:
Transactions with alerts that are triggered by a match with an entry in a sanction list are "frozen" by the system. Transactions without alerts are released immediately and returned to the payment flow. The transaction screening system logs all checks, steps, and decisions for each suspicious activity in an audit-proof manner.
Increases accuracy while saving time and money
Minimizes false positives by utilizing sophisticated algorithms and reduces the compliance officer’s workload.
Stay compliant and safeguard the enterprise
Ensures compliance with international sanctions and the latest embargos in order to safeguard the enterprise.
Certified solution
