Choosing AML software for UK firms
Use these guides to compare AML software against the jobs a regulated firm actually needs to do: risk assessment, CDD, screening, record keeping, and audit evidence.
Comparing AML software honestly
Feature lists converge quickly: most tools verify identity, screen lists, and store documents. The differences that decide whether a tool survives an inspection are how evidence is retained, whether re-screening is automatic, how false positives are reviewed and recorded, and whether the audit trail explains a decision without the person who made it.
Questions worth asking a vendor
Which lists are covered and how often they update; what happens automatically when a list changes; how a false positive is dismissed and what record that leaves; and what an inspector would be shown if they asked for the file on a specific client from two years ago.
