Running ID checks on clients
We are currently upgrading our ID checks. You may notice some changes to your AML widgets during this time.
IRIS Elements Anti Money Laundering Checks allows you to run a variety of checks on a pay-as-you-go basis.
For individuals
You can run individual ID checks for both UK-based and international individual prospects and clients. Or, you can run a bulk ID check for multiple UK-based clients whose ID checks are due to expire or who have never had an ID check run against them.
ID check has been replaced by ID check with PEPs and sanctions monitoring and is no longer available to run. Your historical ID check results are available on the new ID check with PEPs and sanctions widget.
Checks the details of a UK-based individual and screens them against politically exposed persons (PEPs) and sanctions lists. Each check covers electoral roll, mortality, name and address, date of birth, and PEPs and sanctions.
After the check, we monitor your client's name against PEP registers and sanctions lists for 12 months, and you will be notified of any changes.
