Identity matching — read this first.
Sanctions and PEP records are aggregated from independent publishers,
each of which spells names differently and publishes a different subset of identifying
attributes (date of birth, nationality, place of birth, official identifiers).
We aggregate records as a single individual only when date of birth or a combination of
strong attributes confirms identity.
Lower-confidence matches are surfaced below as Possible matches with the
specific evidence — they are not silently combined.
You must independently verify identity against the issuing authority's source record
before any sanctions, AML, or compliance determination.
