Beyond the watchlist: why a data feed isn’t a compliance programme

For twenty years, "buying compliance" has meant buying a list. A subscription to a premium watchlist and PEP database, billed per record or per search, and the quiet assumption that a name-check against it is due diligence.

Start with a compliance health check.

A working session with your compliance team, then a walkthrough against your own risk appetite: the lifecycle end to end, scoring weights set to your policy, and a review of the audit trail the system produces.
