Definition

Sanctions screening checks customers, counterparties, destinations, and transactions against applicable restrictions before or during a financial relationship or transfer across jurisdictions.

In market context

Screening can produce possible matches that require review because names, ownership, locations, and identifiers may be incomplete or similar. A platform may delay, reject, block, or report activity when law or policy requires it, and restrictions can change after onboarding. Screening is one compliance control within a broader risk process and does not by itself establish that an otherwise unmatched transaction is legitimate.
