FAQs
Answers,
on the record.
What is Nex Screening?
Nex Screening is the screening and case-management product built by Nex. We screen people and companies against sanctions, politically-exposed persons (PEP) lists and curated adverse media, and surface every match with the source URL, retrieval timestamp and source hash so the decision is defensible months later.
What does Nex Screening cover?
Nex Screening covers sanctions, PEP and adverse-media screening with case management, evidence capture and reviewer workflows. It is tuned for defensible decisions rather than broad compliance theater.
What kinds of entities can I screen?
Individuals, companies, vessels and addresses. Network resolution covers owners, directors, subsidiaries and beneficial-owner structures, with the OFAC 50% rule computed across the full ownership graph — not just the first hop.
How often is your data refreshed?
Streaming ingestion from primary publishers — sanctions and PEP lists are pulled and reconciled continuously. Adverse media is refreshed across several language-aware feeds. Median lag from publication to a live API match is on the order of minutes.
Where do your sources come from?
Directly from regulators, registries and curated outlets — not from a reseller. UN, EU, OFAC, UK HMT and 200+ sanctions sources; primary PEP datasets across 60+ jurisdictions including Wikidata PEPs, EveryPolitician and ruPEP; and curated, language-aware press for adverse media. Every source is documented inside your dashboard.
How do I integrate Nex into my product?
A REST API with idempotent retries, correlation IDs and a hosted dashboard for compliance teams. The API is designed for AML platforms and compliance stacks to embed natively.
How do I get access?
Nex Screening is an enterprise product — the way in is to book a demo. We'll walk through your use case, scope an integration and get you onto the platform.
Is Nex compliant with GDPR and other privacy regulations?
Yes. We sign DPAs, publish our sub-processor list, anonymise PII on retention expiry and respect the right-to-erasure end-to-end. Consent events are logged on the immutable audit chain. Data-residency options are available on request.
How do you handle false positives?
Two ways. Our matcher uses transliteration-aware scoring across many scripts, so the bar for a hit is higher than a fuzzy-name vendor. When a match does need review, the case workflow ships with four-eyes approval, citation pinning and inline reviewer comments — false-positive resolutions become reusable rules for future screenings.
Can I screen large lists in batch?
Yes. CSV uploads at scale, resumable, with incremental diff against your last run so you only pay for — and only review — what actually changed. Output is delivered as a signed CSV plus an immutable audit trail that holds up in a regulatory exam.
What support do you offer?
Every inbound message gets a substantive reply within two business days. Implementation support is included; enterprise customers get a shared Slack channel and a quarterly architecture review.
