Frequently asked questions
What are the Regulatory Requirements for Adverse Media Screening? Arrow
It depends on the country. However, adverse media screening is a unified practice for a standard AML program, which is defined by laws like the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) in the USA, which focuses on screening and reporting suspicious activity through filing Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs). In Europe, for example, the 6th Anti-Money Laundering Directive (6AMLD) requires banks to perform enhanced due diligence for high-risk customers, who should be screened for adverse media.
