| Matching | Name screening uses fuzzy matching with an adjustable threshold to balance potential missed matches against false positives. | The service describes its matching as fuzzy, transliteration-aware and alias-aware. |
| Ongoing monitoring | The tool does not monitor a saved list of names; each search reflects the data available when the search is run. | Growth and Enterprise plans continuously rescreen profiles and send a webhook when a previously cleared profile matches a new list version. |
| Purpose | FinCrimeRadar provides free financial crime screening, regulatory intelligence, practitioner guides, and training tools for compliance professionals and students. | ScreeningHub screens people and companies against global PEP, sanctions, law-enforcement and adverse-media watchlists through an API or hosted form. |
| Support | The maker lists [email protected] for contact and privacy queries. | Starter includes email support, Growth includes priority support, and Enterprise includes a dedicated success manager. |

In their own words
FinCrimeRadar
FinCrimeRadar is a free web resource for financial crime screening, regulatory intelligence, practitioner guides, and training for compliance professionals and students. Its screening tool searches sanctions lists, politically exposed person databases, and adverse media using a live OpenSanctions dataset of over 1.2 million risk entities. Fuzzy name matching has an adjustable threshold to balance potential missed matches against false positives. Sanctions and PEP information includes data from official sources such as OFAC, UK, EU, and UN lists; sanctions data is checked daily, with changes recorded in a changelog. Adverse media searches recent English-language news from a limited set of feeds, roughly covering the last 12 months, and is not comprehensive or curated. Scenario Lab offers interactive exercises in KYC and KYB investigations, fraud detection, and risk scoring, but is not a certification. The Knowledge Hub provides guides across six compliance domains, along with simulators, typology tabs, and quizzes. Screening queries are processed in real time and are not stored, logged, analysed, or shared by FinCrimeRadar. The service is educational and cannot replace regulated commercial screening or serve as the sole basis for compliance decisions.
