In order to avoid stiff penalties and reputational harm, financial institutions have a legal responsibility to exercise due diligence in order to determine if funds are derived from a corrupt source. Accuity’s RDD lists provide the information needed to screen for individuals and entities that have been identified through legislative or regulatory action or by executive directive as mandated by governments and regulatory agencies worldwide.
The following RDD lists are new to Accuity’s Global WatchList offering:
> Central Bank of Seychelles

> Mauritius Financial Services Commission
> Japan's Ministry of Finance
> Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation
> Indian Ministry
