CI's Global Compliance Intelligence Inquiry is a result of the US Patriot Act; however, it expands well beyond by including foreign terrorist lists, as well. In one search, you can determine if your applicant is on any of hundreds of terrorist-related lists. This cutting-edge solution is designed to assist you in making informed hiring decisions by screening potential employees against a vast array of international databases and watch lists.

The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) is part of the US Department of the Treasury which administers and enforces sanctions based on US policy and security. The Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list is a data set containing individuals and companies that have been sanctioned by OFAC, and are therefore barred from working or doing business in the United States. If you hire internationally, or have a high level executive hire on the horizon, you need to perform proper due diligence when searching the OFAC SDN list.

A consolidated screening list search involves a thorough review of a combined database containing individuals, entities, and organizations subject to sanctions, restrictions, or prohibitions imposed by national and international authorities. These lists aim to prevent financial transactions and business dealings with designated individuals or entities involved in terrorism, money laundering, weapons proliferation, and other illicit activities.

An SDN check list is a list of individuals and companies that are subject to sanctions by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). OFAC is a department of the United States Treasury that is responsible for administering and enforcing economic and trade sanctions programs. The SDN list includes individuals and companies that are owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, targeted countries, groups, regimes, terrorists, or international narcotics traffickers. Their assets are blocked and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from dealing with them.

Focus: Identifies potential connections to sanctioned individuals, organizations, and countries that could expose your company to severe regulatory penalties, frozen assets, and reputational damage.

Considerations: Reveals relationships that standard criminal checks miss entirely, including links to designated terrorist organizations, money laundering networks, and foreign entities subject to international sanctions.

Recommendation: Critical for financial institutions, international businesses, government contractors, and any organization handling cross-border transactions or operating in high-risk regions. Not optional for regulated industries where penalties for non-compliance can reach millions.
