Could you build this?
No Watchlist screening requires enterprise compliance data pipelines aggregating 3,500+ global law enforcement/sanctions lists with strict regulatory defensibility and legal liability.
What it would actually take: Requires continuous ingestion ETL pipelines to monitor, normalize, and parse updates across thousands of sovereign government and regulatory gazettes, PEP databases, and sanctions lists (OFAC, UN, EU). It demands specialized entity-resolution algorithms (phonetic, transliteration, alias matching across multiple scripts) tuned to minimize false negatives and false positives. Deep regulatory compliance expertise and enterprise legal licensing for proprietary databases are mandatory.
