Overall Compliance Score
The overall compliance score reflects the highest level of risk detected during the review process. If any high-risk factor is identified, the score is automatically marked as high risk (red). In the absence of high risks, the presence of any medium-risk factor results in a medium-risk classification. Only when neither high nor medium risks are detected is the score considered low risk.
Country Risk
This indicator assesses potential risk based on the company’s country of origin. This rating is based on the World Transparency Index, which focuses on the levels of corruption in countries all over the world.
Activity Risk
The risk associated with the company's business activities is evaluated through its industry code(s). This analysis helps identify potential risks specific to the industry or sector in which the company operates.
Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) Risk
If any entity in the compliance check is identified as a Politically Exposed Person, the risk is automatically classified as high (red). This risk can be mitigated if a detailed review of the entity determines that the result is a false positive or should be reclassified as “No Risk” by the analyst.
Sanctions Risk
The presence of any sanctioned entity during the compliance check triggers an automatic high-risk classification. Similar to PEP risk, this classification can be adjusted to “No Risk” or “False Positive” following a thorough review.
Adverse Media & Enforcements Risk
This indicator evaluates risk based on negative media coverage and enforcement actions related to the company. If a risk is determined during the initial screening of an entity, the overall score indicates a high risk. Similar to PEP & Sanctions this risk can be mitigated.
