What problem does it solve?
Financial institutions and compliance teams operating under Russian law must identify politically exposed persons (PEPs) to apply mandatory Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) measures, avoid regulatory penalties for 115-FZ violations, and mitigate corruption and sanctions risk associated with PEP relationships.
Core Features & Use Cases
- PEP Classification: Categorizes subjects into foreign PEPs (IPEP), international organization PEPs (IOPEP), Russian PEPs (DPEP), and related PEP family members per 115-FZ requirements.
- Structured Screening Workflow: Guides users through identity verification, multi-source PEP database searches, result analysis, and EDD implementation for all PEP categories.
- Russia-Specific Compliance Checks: Includes built-in steps for sanctions list cross-referencing and 273-FZ anti-corruption declaration verification for Russian PEPs.
- Use Case: A compliance officer onboarding a new corporate client with a beneficial owner who previously served as a deputy minister can use this skill to complete full PEP screening, document required EDD steps, and ensure regulatory alignment.
Quick Start
Use the pep-screening skill to screen a new individual client who is a former senior executive at a Russian state-owned energy company to determine their PEP status and required due diligence steps.
