More control, less noise: Customise your sanctions matching

With this latest update, team managers have control over how Strise matches sanctions alerts, based on your company’s risk policy, not just default thresholds.

Tailor sanctions matching to your risk appetite

Instead of casting a wide net and filtering later, you can now define:

• How strict or broad you want your sanctions matching to be
• What match percentages Strise uses when flagging entities
• How alerts are triggered across your team
  

This means you’re no longer bound to one-size-fits-all risk thresholds. You’re in control of what gets flagged.

How it works

Head to sanctions settings and you can:

• Adjust match percentage thresholds (e.g. name similarity)
• Test and experiment with data results in real time
• Apply chosen thresholds across your entire team
  

Once you set the match confidence level you’re happy with, the system will use that logic across your workflows, keeping things consistent, auditable, and aligned with your internal policy.

Why it matters

This update empowers compliance teams to:

• Reduce false positives without missing real threats
• Make sanctions screening more aligned with your policy
• Fine-tune controls as your risk appetite evolves‍

Data and workflows working together—that’s the Strise effect.
