Global Sanctions & Watchlists Data

One structured, versioned feed of every major sanctions and watchlist source, refreshed every 15 minutes, so your screening runs on data that is current and citable.

3,000+ Lists in the feed
220+ Countries covered
15 min Refresh interval
Versioned Every record, every change
Why this matters

Screening is only as current as the data underneath it

A screening engine is worthless against a list that is two weeks stale, or a feed that drops the source text a regulator will ask to see. Most programmes stitch lists together from raw regulator files, each in its own format, none versioned. Complead delivers one normalised feed, versioned per record, refreshed every 15 minutes, with the original source text kept.

Stale lists

A designation published this morning is not in your screen until the weekly load.

Raw formats

Every regulator publishes differently, and normalising them is your problem.

No history

When a record changes, there is no record of what it said before.

How it works

Four steps, from regulator source to your screen

Scroll to advance
  1. Step 01 Ingest the sources

    Every regulator and list source is ingested at source, in its native format.

  2. Step 02 Normalise the fields

    Names, aliases, identifiers and programmes are mapped to one schema across sources.

  3. Step 03 Version every change

    Each record is versioned. A change keeps the prior state and the change time.

  4. Step 04 Deliver over the API

    The feed is delivered as a versioned API, with the source text on every record.
