Tara, WorkFusion’s 100% digital Transaction Screening Analyst, is designed to protect your organization from sanctioned or risky client relationships by reviewing transaction alerts using different sanction lists. She is designed to ingest each alert generated by a financial institution’s sanctions screening system and determine if it is a false positive.

The AI Agent is agnostic to the screening system used and does not require tuning, sensitivity, or algorithm changes to the financial institution’s screening platform.

WorkFusion does not replace Transaction Screening software but adds an extra layer to make the transaction and payment process more robust by automating Manual Tasks and reducing false-positive alerts.

Tara’s capabilities as Transaction Screening Analyst:

Review and analyze alerted payment messages (e.g., SWIFT messages) to decide whether alert is valid or a false positive
If the transaction is not determined to be a false positive, escalate to the analyst for further review
Utilize and enrich information using approved sanction list(s)
Continuously review alert messages (payment transaction messages) and hits to make decisions
When needed, cross-reference message with third-party tools (e.g., Google, OpenCorporates.com) for more context and confidence in decision
Provide written explanations for each decision
Consult additional third-party sources to research organizations/individuals and support decision
Handle exceptions with human-in-the-loop capability, working side-by-side with traditional team members.

Integration:

Benefits of end-to-end automation:
This AI-enabled, pre-trained AI Agent determines if a hit on a customer's transactions and pertained details (including originator and beneficiary details such as name, age, gender, and location) are a match or a false positive using a bank's internal KYC data and external data sources for confirmations (for example, connecting to government information portals, OFAC, UK, FATF sanction lists, and EU sanction lists) and determines if a customer’s details are relevant. Automating the transaction screening alert review helps drastically lower the number of false positives that traditional analysts review manually, thus reducing the time and manual effort required while increasing accuracy.

Up to 70% + reduction in False positive alerts
Provide standardized justifications for decisions
Adaptive to ever-changing compliance and industry regulations

Usage based pricing
Usage for Tara's Payment Sanction Screening (PSS) skill is calculated and billed on a per transaction basis. For PSS, a single transaction is defined as an entity name (regardless of whether it is an individual, enterprise or vessel) that is submitted for investigation and successfully completes.

The submission of an entity name (i.e., Royal Mail Ship (RMS) Titanic) triggers an investigation. As part of each single investigation, Tara will search for mentions or “hits” of the entity on various sanction lists. Note that it is possible for zero “alerts” to be returned – this simply means that the entity is not mentioned on a sanctions list. Regardless of whether or not a “hit” or “alert” was found for the entity, a comprehensive audit in the form of a report is created as part of the output. Only investigations for entity names which did not complete (i.e., the investigation was cancelled or there was a system error) are excluded from billing.
