WatchDOG Elite is an advanced web-based watch list screening solution
that makes scanning against OFAC and other U.S. and international watch lists easy
and efficient. Developed by combining our advanced search algorithm with the latest
web technology, CSI's WatchDOG Elite is a thorough watch list
screening solution that gives companies a feature-rich platform for successfully
vetting parties with whom they do business with against all applicable watch lists.
Maintain OFAC Compliance
Incorporating WatchDOG Elite into your compliance program will
streamline and automate the screening process for your business, as well as:
- Quickly and easily compare your customer list against watch lists including OFAC’s
Specially Designated Nationals and Sanctioned Countries lists
- Verify client name, address and date of birth using sophisticated matching and disqualification
techniques that result in fewer false positives
- Use interactive customer master search to identify such key information as account
name, last scanned date, batch number and batch submitted date
- Recognize both domestic ACH and international ACH transactions (IATs) and compare
all applicable fields against OFAC and other watch lists
- Allow the creation of “good customer” and “blocked” customer
lists to reduce false positives and enable easy reporting of positive matches
- Produce detailed reports that indicate the date of a search, the user, the customer
name and the outcome
- Easily integrate with your existing systems and processes using unattended batch
and single look-up (web service) operations
WatchDOG Elite Software
WatchDOG Elite (CSI-hosted or client-hosted) facilitates restricted party watch
list screening using either a web browser or integrated methods to meet your compliance
needs:
- Single Look-ups – integrate web services for Denied Party List screening from your
system, or enable your users to manually input and review matches in WatchDOG Elite
using a streamlined interface and workflow assignment for further resolution
- Batch File Processing – upload your file using a web browser, or automate your file
runs by sending them to us by secure means (FTPS, SFTP, etc.)
- Automated list updates – CSI handles the burden of monitoring, gathering, cleansing
and deploying the list for you
- Streamlined review and resolve – easily manage watch list screening with multi-list
aggregation that reduces scrolling and improves user efficiency
- Unified search and reporting – previously scanned data can be easily searched with
inline filtering and reported on for documentation and auditing purposes
- IAT Module – an add-on to WatchDOG Elite that separates OFAC-matching transactions
in your IAT file then reassembles your IAT file, with non-OFAC matches. Non-matching
IATs continue in your process, allowing time to perform due diligence on the matching/suspect
IAT transactions
- Customer Data
Management – an optional component to consolidate and automate the scanning
of your customer list based on your compliance needs. For example, the CDM Module
can ensure that your customers are automatically re-scanned whenever the OFAC SDN
List is updated
- Outsourced Watch List Services – CSI's experienced compliance analyst team reviews
potential matches with OFAC’s SDN list and other lists
