About this template

The stated OKR aims to improve payment screening for sanction compliance efficiency. The primary objective is to decrease the number of false positives in sanction checks by 25%. This can be achieved through regular updates of sanctions lists and references, rigorous system and data testing procedures and enhancing the precision of data matching algorithms.

A secondary objective is to achieve 95% precision in identifying sanction-related payment risks. For this, staff should be educated on recognizing potential risks, regulatory and sanctions lists should be updated regularly and comprehensive sanction screening software should be implemented.

It is also mandated to conduct quality checks for 100% of the reviewed payments for sanction compliance. Here, any compliance issues that are identified should be addressed and rectified immediately. At the same time, results of each compliance check should be verified and recorded.

Finally, all payments have to be reviewed for adherence to sanction compliance laws. Regular reviews ensure that the payment processes align with the compliance laws, ensuring standardized and legal operations.
