Elevate compliance with an end-to-end customer due diligence (CDD) solution powered by superior analytics

SAS Customer Due Diligence

Maximize the effectiveness of your anti-money laundering program with enhanced customer intelligence and streamlined CDD/EDD processes across the customer life cycle.

Take a risk-based approach to customer monitoring

The SAS Customer Due Diligence solution automatically creates a risk profile for each customer with intelligent risk categorization approaches based on your institution’s risk policies. Customer populations are segmented into bands based on risk scores (high, medium, low). This enables you to fully understand the risks within your customer base, actively monitor ongoing customer activity and perform efficient periodic reviews that are in line with the true risk your institution faces.
Ensure comprehensive risk coverage

Analysts can accurately assess customer risk with prebuilt, analytically driven customer risk rating models. Additionally, administrative users can create, govern and update customer monitoring scenarios with a built-in visual scenario builder. Proven scenarios combined with advanced analytic risk rating models give your institution more comprehensive risk coverage.
Conduct efficient, enhanced due diligence (EDD) investigations

With the SAS Customer Due Diligence solution, you can modify risk classifications and create manual reviews if required as part of a deep-dive analysis. Analysts can manually set the next periodic review date within the customer's profile. The preconfigured EDD review workflows enable analysts to centralize and streamline EDD processes.
Gain a single view of the customer

Resolve entities using advanced analytics to look at multiple data sources and references to a customer and account for inconsistencies, errors, abbreviations and incomplete records to help determine if they relate to the same entity. Analysts can rapidly uncover risky entities with network and entity generation processes that automatically build network diagrams and reveal hidden relationships. The customer risk dashboard provides a holistic visualization of the entire customer risk profile to provide analysts with the information needed to make faster, more informed decisions.
Improve the efficiency of investigations

Empower anti-money laundering analysts with an integrated, configurable and user-friendly alert and case management platform. Self-service capabilities and intelligently prioritized alerts enable efficient triage, investigation and disposition. In addition to preconfigured user interface screens, administrative users can use the interactive drag-and-drop page builder to conﬁgure settings, views and workﬂows to tailor the application for unique business or user requirements.
Ensure transparency

Open-box (transparent) customer risk rating models help ensure success with internal model governance boards and external regulators. The SAS Customer Due Diligence solution provides complete customer review reports for outcome auditing and compliance purposes.
