Why Effective Sanctions List Management Matters for Banks

Why Effective Sanctions List Management Matters for Banks
Sanctions compliance depends on accurate, up-to-date data. Manual list handling and fragmented watchlist processes can lead to inconsistencies, delayed updates, and regulatory breaches. Modern financial institutions must maintain full oversight and auditability of how sanctions data is sourced, enriched, and applied across systems. Facctum’s cloud-based list management software automates this process, ensuring sanctions lists are synchronised in real time and aligned with global regulatory sources such as the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and European Banking Authority (EBA).
