Who SanctionsCheck is particularly well suited for
ACTAN SanctionsCheck supports organisations that want to implement sanctions screening in a structured, traceable, and operationally as well as economically proportionate way.
For small and mid-sized asset managers in Switzerland as well as compliance service providers with mandate clients. Also suitable for trustees.
Two target groups, one shared process logic
SanctionsCheck is used either directly by small and mid-sized asset managers and trustees, or by compliance service providers working across multiple mandate clients.
Direct customers
For small and mid-sized asset managers in Switzerland, as well as trustees, who want to cover the sanctions area within their own process in a structured, traceable, and operationally and economically proportionate way.
Compliance service providers
For service providers who want to screen multiple mandate clients across mandates in an automated and consistent workflow, while ensuring clear responsibilities and reliable evidence.
Both models follow the same shared process logic: structured screening, user-guided review, and audit-ready evidence.
For asset managers and trustees responsible for the sanctions process
Many asset managers and trustees already have established compliance processes, whether through existing tools, Excel-based lists, or manual controls. The key question is therefore not whether software is already in place, but whether the sanctions area can still be covered proportionately today within the existing operating and licensing logic.
What used to run alongside now needs its own workflow
Sanctions screening often used to run alongside periodic or risk-based compliance checks. With today’s requirements around response time, review, and evidence, that logic is often no longer sufficient.
The gap often does not lie in the technology
Whether the current setup is tool-based, Excel-based, or manual, the real issue often lies in whether operating logic, evidence, and cost fit an independent sanctions process.
Not another suite, but a better fit
The benefit does not lie in yet another broad suite, but in a targeted process component for the sanctions area. This makes it possible to cover screening, review, and evidence without unnecessarily replacing existing processes.
ACTAN SanctionsCheck complements existing processes where the sanctions area now requires an independent, traceable, and economically proportionate workflow.
For compliance service providers with operational responsibility for sanctions screening
Many compliance service providers take on the operational task of screening client bases for their mandate clients when relevant sanctions list changes occur. For larger mandates, this can often be handled with existing software solutions. It becomes more difficult with smaller and mid-sized asset managers or trustees: requirements increase, budgets remain limited, and manual processes only scale to a certain extent.
Smaller mandates need a viable service model
Smaller asset managers and trustees need a reliable sanctions process, but often cannot bear high additional costs. Compliance service providers therefore need a model that remains professional while still being economically transferable to mandate clients.
Multiple client bases, one consistent workflow
When relevant list changes occur, multiple client bases often need to be screened promptly. Mandate-specific or manual processes quickly create extra effort, follow-up questions, and inconsistent evidence
Automation that scales with mandate volume
ACTAN SanctionsCheck enables bundled and automated screening across multiple mandates. Through the licensing logic based on the number of monitored names, allocations can be used more efficiently and costs can be distributed across mandate clients in a predictable way.
ACTAN SanctionsCheck helps compliance service providers deliver sanctions screening for smaller and mid-sized mandate clients in a professional, scalable, and economically viable way.
