The benefits of Annual Assurance Testing
An annual subscription testing service for small to medium financial institutions who need ongoing, independent assurance that their sanction screening system is working as expected.
AAT is needed by both traditional and non-traditional financial institutions to:
- Understand if your sanction screening system is performing with optimum effectiveness and efficiency in line with regulatory expectation
- Help customers respond to increasing scrutiny from financial regulators as to the integrity of a sanction screening system
- Minimise an entity’s exposure to AML/CFT risk
- Provide an evidence-based reporting system that is trusted by in excess of 40 regulators around the globe
Our testing methodology ensures total data security and requires neither the installation of any software nor any IT integration with a customer’s systems so that that there will never be any data protection issues.
A flexible testing solution
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.
