Monitoring That Doesn't Overwhelm Your Team
Well-calibrated transaction monitoring and screening reduces alert fatigue for your compliance team, so real red flags do not get lost in noise.
Building Effective Transaction Monitoring
Transaction monitoring and screening only works if it is tuned correctly. Here is what that actually involves.
A monitoring system using generic, unadjusted thresholds either misses genuine risk or floods your compliance team with false positives, both outcomes undermine effective transaction monitoring and screening over time.
Any activity that appears inconsistent with a customer's known profile or lacks an apparent legitimate business purpose can trigger a suspicious transaction report, regardless of the transaction amount involved.
3 Common Transaction Monitoring Mistakes
These are the recurring issues we find when reviewing existing transaction monitoring and screening setups.
Using out-of-the-box thresholds
- Using out-of-the-box thresholds never calibrated to the business’s actual customer base.
Screening against sanctions
- Screening against sanctions lists only at onboarding, not on an ongoing basis as lists update.
Delaying suspicious transaction
- Delaying suspicious transaction report filing while waiting for more certainty than the rule actually requires.
