Define the sources you need
Choose the lists your policy requires. A saved result names the sources and data used, so a reviewer can see what was checked and when.
Sanctions screening by industry

A bank checks new customers. A marketplace checks sellers. A nonprofit may need to check donors and grant recipients. Find an example that fits your work, then see which people, companies and sources your team needs to review.

Give the reviewer useful evidence
See which names and details agree with a list entry, where they conflict and what is missing. Open the original source record and explain your decision in the case notes.
Plan the screening volume
Count new checks, completed rows from uploads and repeat checks from monitors. They share your 250 free checks, then your paid plan’s monthly allowance. Checks stop at the limit. There are no automatic extra charges.
Choosing a workflow
Questions about industry screening.
Your industry helps shape the questions you ask. Your policy sets which checks you need and who must review them. SanctionsKit keeps the results and review notes together.
How does sanctions screening differ by industry?
The list comparison is the same basic task. What changes is who you check, when you check them, and what your team must do after a result. A lender may check a borrower and guarantor; a marketplace may check a seller and a new payout party.
Which industry page should we start with?
Choose the page closest to the relationship you are reviewing. Each page explains the parties, a worked example, and the checks that remain outside sanctions screening. You can use more than one workflow if your business spans several sectors.
Does an industry page mean all relevant lists are included?
No. Check the current coverage directory for sources your requests can use. A workflow example does not promise every list or service that an industry may need.
Can our team screen through the dashboard?
Yes. Start with 250 free live checks in the dashboard, with no card needed. Use the API when your app needs to send checks. Both tools share that one lifetime allowance and are included in paid plans too.
Does a no-match meet all of our industry’s needs?
No. It describes the completed comparison with chosen sources. Your policy still determines the required parties, ownership or identity checks, approvals, and other work needed before a business decision.
