Customer screening with a review trail

Built around your work

A fund name may not identify the investor’s legal entity.

Subscriptions, mandates, intermediaries, and payment instructions can involve different legal parties. The team needs to identify what was actually screened and retain separate ownership, source-of-funds, and investment assessments.

Identify the relevant legal parties

Map investors, entities, representatives, and counterparties according to policy. Do not substitute an administrator’s name or a fund brand for the contracting identity.

Preserve evidence for candidate review

Compare the submitted subject with source records and record supporting, conflicting, and unknown facts. Keep identity conclusions separate from investment suitability and legal eligibility.

Keep selected relationships under review

Connect continuing subjects to documented monitoring and update retained identity details when reliable information changes. Assign new evidence and screening issues.

Put it into practice

Define the relationship and checkpoint

Explore source coverage
  1. 01

    Define the relationship and checkpoint

    Map subscriptions, client onboarding, party changes, or other policy-defined events. Verify applicable obligations for the actual type of adviser or institution.

  2. 02

    Screen with explicit coverage

    Use supported sources and preserve the result reference with the client or investor file. Treat unavailable coverage as incomplete.

  3. 03

    Retain decisions and follow-up

    Record the identity comparison, required approvals, and separate business action. Keep ongoing changes linked to the prior evidence.

Evaluate the fit

Screening questions for investment management.

Does this determine investment eligibility?

No. It does not assess suitability, accreditation, securities restrictions, or whether a particular investment activity is authorized.

Does this replace beneficial-ownership research?

No. Screen identified parties as appropriate, but obtain and evaluate ownership evidence through a separate process.

Are all investment advisers under identical current AML duties?

No. Applicability and effective dates depend on the institution and rule. Check current FinCEN requirements with the responsible legal and compliance team.

Does a custodian’s process cover all of our checks?

Determine the actual scope, records available, and exception handling. Do not infer complete coverage from using a custodian or administrator.
