A flexible testing solution

Annual Assurance Testing (AAT) is a new, versatile solution from AML Analytics that provides a flexible approach to testing a sanction screening system, facilitating the creation of a bespoke test on a recurring annual basis.

Frequent Annual Assurance Testing enables ongoing independent validation of a sanction screening system to ensure it is fit for purpose, facilitating frequent reporting to regulatory authorities.

In line with regulatory expectation

AAT is tailored to each customer’s specific requirements according to their jurisdiction and risk appetite, and in terms of sanction list selection and test record type.

Whilst AAT is typically carried out each year, customers who require more frequent testing can add in extra tests. This can be repeated until the desired number of tests is reached

Testing will ensure that the effectiveness and the efficiency of a screening system is understood using a test containing control records and manipulated records.

Manipulated records will have differing algorithms applied to test the fuzzy logic matching capabilities of your sanction screening system and a risk adjusted score to amend the result of risk decisions already made can be included.
