Telecommunications Watchlist Screening Risk: Challenges and Solutions
Explore the wide range of watchlist risks and screening challenges facing telcos, and how the latest technology enables continuous monitoring across high customer volumes.
In the 21st century, telcos face huge regulatory burdens in different areas and must be adept at managing vast amounts of data in order to implement effective compliance decisions.
One of the most important components of a telco’s regulatory responsibilities is to ensure that they are not doing business with high risk customers, such as those designated on local and global sanctions lists. Beyond the regulatory danger associated with sanctions violations – including significant financial penalties – telcos also run the risk of incurring serious reputational damage when infractions are reported to the public by news organisations.
This report outlines the wide range of watchlist risks and screening challenges facing telcos, and explores the technology which can be used to carry out continuous monitoring against sanctions and watchlists, across high customer volumes.
