Sanctions screening
Sanctions Screening Controls for Crypto Firms
Assessment of crypto sanctions screening controls for crypto firms, from hit triage through to final decision, improving consistency, escalation discipline, and defensibility under scrutiny.
Best for firms with screening in place that require stronger control discipline.
Inside the work
How hits are triaged, escalated, and decided in practice.
Useful where crypto sanctions screening is already in place, but sanctions compliance in crypto operations still depends too heavily on individual judgment, uneven overrides, or weak documentation.
What we assess
Screening outcomes often depend on how monitoring alerts are handled in practice.
- Wallet, customer, and counterparty screening workflow across onboarding, transactional review, and event-driven checks
- Triage thresholds, hit handling, escalation routes, and override discipline
- Decision documentation, case evidence, and audit-trail quality
- Whether current tooling and analyst process are aligned with real operating risk
What you receive
- Written review memo with key findings and observed control weaknesses
- Prioritized remediation actions covering workflow, documentation, escalation, and governance
- Practical recommendations to improve consistency, defensibility, and day-to-day screening discipline
Best fit
Exchanges, OTC desks, fintechs, and partner firms that already perform screening and need an external view on whether controls are robust enough for banks, investors, counterparties, or internal governance.
