Separate subjects. Traceable results.Coverage · matched evidence · review notes
Ownership and wider due diligence need their own review.
Built around your work
A fund name may not identify the investor’s legal entity.
An investor, an account administrator, and a fund label can refer to different things. One result must not be treated as a check of every name in the subscription file.
Preserve evidence for candidate review
Compare possible matches with the source facts and known IDs. Record open questions and required approvals.
Keep selected relationships under review
Keep the evidence for the period your policy sets. Add repeat checks where needed. The team still has to assess who owns the money, where it came from, and whether the investor can use the account.
Put it into practice
Connect screening to the next business step.
A subscription names a different investing entity.
A fund subscription includes the investor and another company handling the account. The reviewer needs to know which legal party each result describes.
Each result links to the same account. The manager can track open cases while finishing the wider investor review.
- 01
Define the relationship and checkpoint
List the people and companies that need checks for the account. Collect the names and IDs you know, then choose the required sources.
- 02
Screen with explicit coverage
Screen each subject separately and link the results by reference. Assign possible matches and keep errors incomplete.
- 03
Retain decisions and follow-up
Finish review and the wider investor checks. Revisit changes of entity or payment party without erasing earlier results.
Several parties appear in a fictional subscription
Example Hazel Investments Ltd. buys into a fund in this invented example. Another company manages the account. The manager names the legal investor and each other party the policy says to check. They are separate subjects, even though they appear in one file.
A possible match for an associated party needs review. Keep the investor’s result, that party’s case, and the subscription reference connected. Each still has its own outcome. The team handles ownership, source of funds, and investor eligibility through separate checks.

| Work item | Screening evidence | Boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Investor | Legal person or organization and subscription reference. | A fund or account label may not be the legal party. |
| Associated parties | Separate checks required by the manager’s policy. | Screening does not infer an ownership chain. |
| Subscription review | Retained source scope and case reasoning. | Eligibility, ownership, and source-of-funds decisions remain separate. |
Test the account roles before the next subscription
Start free with 250 live screenings. Use them in the API or dashboard. Your first workspace gets this allowance once, with no monthly reset. No credit card is needed.
Try a company investor and a related person with facts your team may share. Ask a reviewer to find each result. An open question about one person stays open even if the other check found no match.
The optional demo uses made-up records for a quick tour. Use the sandbox to test errors without using live checks.
Count the first checks and required related parties, then add planned rescreens. Try an export in the system where you keep account records. Compare plans. Before production, confirm the lists you can use in coverage and how long you need to keep the evidence.
Keep the legal investor distinct from the account label
A fund brand can help staff find the account without naming the actual investor. Record the legal person or company that each check describes. When another entity or payee enters the file, follow your policy for the new party.
The customer-screening guide gives review examples. Check who and what a custodian’s checks cover. They may not meet all your needs. An investor check does not assess every holding, security or investment.

Screening questions for investment management.
Does SanctionsKit find an investor’s beneficial owners?
No. Your due-diligence process supplies the owners and other parties to check. The product does not discover an ownership chain. Screen each required person or company separately.
Does a custodian’s process cover all of our checks?
Not automatically. Confirm who was checked, which sources were used, and when. Your firm’s policy determines whether that scope meets its needs and which further checks remain.
Does investor screening also screen each security or fund holding?
No. A person or company check does not assess the restrictions attached to an investment or instrument. Issuer, ownership, instrument, and transaction questions need their own analysis.
Can we link several related-party checks to one account?
Yes. Keep the account or subscription reference with each distinct subject and result. That connects the work without merging the legal investor and other parties into a single identity.
Does a no-match establish source of funds?
No. A no-match says that the chosen lists returned no possible match. It does not show where the money came from. Your team still needs to check owners, source of funds, and whether the investor meets the rules for the account.
