Could you build this?
No Sanctions screening requires continuous ingestion of global government databases, specialized cross-lingual fuzzy matching across non-Latin scripts, and enterprise-grade regulatory compliance certifications.
What it would actually take: A compliant sanctions screening engine requires ETL pipelines pulling from hundreds of government watchlists (OFAC, UN, EU) every 15 minutes with audit logging. The core matching engine uses specialized NLP, phonetic algorithms (Double Metaphone, Soundex), transliteration across 80+ languages (Arabic, Cyrillic, Chinese), and graph databases for crypto wallet and entity clustering. Building this requires deep AML/KYC compliance expertise, legal verification, and high-availability enterprise infrastructure.
