Adversea

What Adversea is

Adversea is a risk screening service for compliance work: check whether a person or entity appears in sanctions lists, PEP databases or adverse media, and pull structured reports through the interface or API.

What you can do with it

• Screen subjects against PEP and sanctions data
• Pull adverse media topic reports
• Verify findings against listed sources
• Integrate checks into onboarding flows
• Document screening for audit trails

Who it is for

• AML compliance teams
• Due diligence professionals
• Businesses with onboarding obligations

What to watch out for

• Screening hits are flags, not verdicts; false positives are common and human review is required before adverse action
• Screening individuals is regulated personal data processing; know your legal basis and data retention duties
• Media coverage aggregation inherits source quality and language biases
• Automated checks support, but do not replace, your compliance programme's judgement
