Join us on for a practical, policy-grounded talk on how entity resolution technology is transforming the fight against illicit finance — from disambiguating beneficial owners across fragmented registries to real-time sanctions matching at scale.

Shell companies. Proxy owners. Nominee directors. Fragmented registries.
Ornate structures used to obscure illicit finance are becoming more complex, and the data and technologies required to expose this corruption at scale must keep up pace.

Sanctions screening and enforcement depend on accurate, real-time matching of names, aliases, and relationships across rapidly changing watchlists. Beneficial ownership transparency (aka, who controls what) requires disambiguating legal entities and individuals across complex corporate structures — and that's the problem which entity resolution solves.

With the UK Government's Illicit Finance Summit just weeks away, the pressure to act on beneficial ownership transparency has never been greater. Governments are demanding cleaner data. Regulators are tightening sanctions screening. Investigators need to connect the dots across complex corporate structures — fast.

We'll cover beneficial ownership disambiguation, real-time sanctions screening, PEP matching, and what the Beneficial Ownership Data Standard actually means in practice.
