About Us
Providing compliance solutions to help your organization meet regulatory guidelines set forth by U.S Department of the Treasury, Bureau of Industry and Security and other KYC and AML governing bodies.
OFAC-API's individual and entity screening and search functions were designed in coordination with the U.S Department of the Treasury, based on latest guidelines which call for a fuzzy logic search. The search algorithm utilizes multiple matching techniques; Jaro-Winkler character similarity and Soundex phonetic matching. The search returns exact matches, as well as partial matches which meet a minimum threshold as defined by the user. The higher the threshold, the fewer results will be returned and the higher the likelihood of a match.
For more information on the guidelines used, please visit Treasury Departments official guidelines
RESTful APIs
The APIs allow for customized queries based on your organizations individual set of risks. For example, query only entities, ignoring aliases and a strong threshold configuration to avoid false positives. API results are structured and made available in the preferred data formats of software engineers.
