How can banks speed up customer onboarding without weakening screening controls?
Banks can leverage agentic AI to make faster, policy-aligned screening decisions at scale, reducing delays, maintaining compliance controls, and supporting faster onboarding and growth without increasing risk exposure.
For institutions experiencing high alert volumes, onboarding delays, or increasing regulatory scrutiny, this creates significant operational strain. Applying screening policies consistently across investigators, jurisdictions, and customer segments becomes increasingly difficult, limiting growth, increasing compliance risk, and slowing customer onboarding.
Iris 7 is designed to transform how financial institutions manage customer screening, bringing together specialised AI Agents that operate across the entire screening lifecycle – combining high-quality risk data, intelligent detection, AI-driven investigation, and governed decisioning to resolve alerts efficiently and consistently.
The result is faster onboarding, reduced customer friction, and the ability to scale screening operations in line with business growth, without increasing compliance risk or headcount.
Risk Data Management
Iris 7’s Risk Data Management solution ensures customer screening is powered by accurate, consistent, and high-quality risk data.
Clean, Reliable Risk Data for Accurate Screening
Consolidate, clean, and standardise sanctions, PEP, and adverse media data from multiple sources. Remove duplicates and resolving entities for high-quality, validated screening screening risk data to improve accuracy, efficiency, and compliance decision-making.
Screening & Detection
Iris 7’s Screening & Detection solutions generate accurate, relevant screening alerts by analysing customer data against sanctions, PEP, and adverse media sources. Institutions can improve match precision and reduce unnecessary alerts, providing a stronger foundation for efficient investigations and policy-aligned decisioning.
Reduce Customer Friction with More Accurate Screening Matches
Identify potential matches across sanctions, PEP, and adverse media lists using AI-driven matching and configurable screening rules. Improve detection accuracy, reduce excessive alerts, and generate higher-quality alerts for faster, more efficient investigations and compliance screening.
Stay Ahead of Regulatory and Geopolitical Change
Continuously monitor regulatory, sanctions, AML, and geopolitical developments. Interpret their relevance against your institution’s policies and control framework and deliver structured, auditable assessments that help compliance teams identify emerging risks earlier. Reduce manual monitoring effort, and respond with greater speed and confidence.
Investigation & Decisioning
Iris 7’s Investigation and Decisioning solutions enrich alerts with additional customer intelligence and investigative context, allowing AI Agents and analysts to resolve alerts faster while ensuring decisions remain aligned with internal risk policies.
Accelerate Onboarding by Resolving Up to 90% of Screening Alerts
Real-time, policy-bound investigation and decisioning of customer screening alerts across sanctions, PEP, and adverse media lists. Automatically close false positives and escalate genuine risks to reduce manual investigations, improve straight-through processing, and deliver fast, explainable decisions aligned with your risk appetite.
Reveal Hidden Risk in Global Media Sources
Analyse publicly available news and information sources to identify potential financial crime risks linked to individuals or organisations. Assess the materiality and relevance of adverse media to enrich screening and investigations with contextual insight that helps to uncover hidden threats, prioritise risk, and make more informed compliance decisions.
Manage Investigations and Decisions in One Workspace
An end-to-end workflow and case management environment that gives analysts a unified view of screening alerts. Enable your teams to prioritise workloads, track investigations, and document decisions with full audit trails, improving operational efficiency, transparency, and compliance oversight.
Automate Complex Customer Due Diligence Reviews
Perform complex CDD and EDD reviews, gather relevant information, apply institutional risk standards, and produce an informed customer risk rating with fully documented acceptance, escalation, or enhanced monitoring decisions.
Deliver Defensible Screening Decisions for Escalated Cases
Senior-level screening interpretation at scale. Assess escalated sanctions and watchlist cases using contextual research and institutional policy intent, for deeper interpretation than required in standard screening. Interpret entity relationships, indirect exposure, and jurisdictional factors within defined authority limits and produce defensible screening outcomes.
Quality Assurance & Governance
Iris 7’s Quality Assurance & Governance solutions provide built-in tools that enable institutions to continuously monitor decision accuracy, validate policy changes, and maintain full auditability – ensuring screening outcomes remain consistent, defensible, and aligned with regulatory expectations.
Continuous learning across the platform analyses data patterns, analyst feedback, and decision outcomes to strengthen detection and investigations over time, driving ongoing improvements in efficiency, effectiveness, and regulatory defensibility.
