OFAC-Agent Suite is a complete solution enabling financial institutions to comply with international AML regulations such as general transaction filtering and Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures.

Our Suite of filtering solutions eliminates the risk of processing illegal transactions and detects high-risk financial customers by filtering any payment messages and customer information, against any combination of sanctions/PEPs & FEPs (Politically Exposed Person & Financially Exposed Persons) lists.

Many lists to comply with...
The United Nations, the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF), the US Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), the European Parliament, among others, issue lists of thousand of entries (companies, countries, vessels or individuals) for which financial transactions must be blocked. When doing international business, institutions have no other choice but to comply with governmental regulations, otherwise, they expose themselves to severe sanctions.
Moreover, Third-Party lists (like Factiva, World-Check) offer databases of PEPs and FEPs which enable financial institutions to efficiently screen their customers, associates, transactions and employees for potential risk.

As 50% of OFAC-Agent filter performances are based on the quality of the lists, the main challenge to remain compliant is to remedy to the rapid growth and overnight changes of these lists. As a result, FircoSoft developed a highly efficient & easy list management to make the most of the complete and powerful filtering capabilities of OFAC-Agent Suite.
