Northwind Bank cuts false positives

How Northwind Bank worked with us on cuts false positives.

Screening under 1 second
For the first time our analysts are working real risk instead of clearing noise. The tuning against our own outcomes made the difference.Daniel Larsson, Chief Operating Officer, Northwind Bank

The challenge

Sanctions screening ran on overnight batches, so onboarding decisions lagged a full day and the screening lists were perpetually out of date against fast-moving designations.

Our approach

We deployed the monitoring engine alongside the existing system in shadow mode, tuned thresholds against six months of confirmed dispositions, then cut over segment by segment with the analyst team in the loop throughout.

The result

Median screening time dropped from overnight to under a second, onboarding decisions became same-session, and no true match was missed during the parallel-run period.
