What Is Bulk Screening?
Bulk screening allows organisations to upload lists of names or identifiers and screen them simultaneously against sanctions and PEP datasets. It is commonly used for onboarding batches, legacy data reviews, periodic compliance checks, and large-scale portfolio screening where manual individual searches would be impractical.
Why Bulk Screening Matters
- Increase operational efficiency by screening thousands of records simultaneously
- Reduce manual workload associated with individual name-by-name searches
- Standardise screening workflows across large datasets for consistent results
- Support high-volume compliance reviews for periodic re-screening cycles

- CSV upload support for names, organisations, vessels, and wallet addresses
- Structured match results with relevance indicators and source links

Bulk Screening Use Cases

Periodic Portfolio Re-Screening
Re-screen the entire customer base on a quarterly or annual cycle to identify new matches since the last screening round as sanctions lists are updated.
M&A Target Portfolio Review
Screen an acquisition target's entire customer or counterparty portfolio for sanctions and PEP exposure as part of pre-acquisition due diligence.
Vendor and Supply Chain Audit
Screen all vendors, suppliers, and subcontractors in a single batch to identify any entities or beneficial owners appearing on sanctions or PEP lists.
