What is a source collection?

Source collections enable you to choose groups of risk data sources. 

This enables you to tailor searches to specific use cases. For example, you could create a sanctions-only source collection, including all or selected sanctions lists. The search fuzziness and options can be set for this source collection to determine how closely a customer must match the risk entities in the collection to trigger an alert.  A different source collection could be created for politically exposed persons (PEPs) with a different search fuzziness.

Sources are grouped by category to make it easy to find and manage the sources in a collection.

The categories are:

• Sanctions: Sanctions lists, for example from the Office of Foreign Control Assets (OFAC).

• Warnings: Warning lists, for example police 'most wanted' lists.

• Fitness & Probity: Fitness and probity related lists, such as the United Kingdom Company House Disqualified Directors Register.

• PEPs: PEP classes 

• Adverse Media: Adverse media source subcategories, such as fraud-linked.

Here you can see a source collection called 'High Risk Sources', with a fuzziness of 50% and some of the Sanctions data sources available for inclusion in this collection.
