Continuous KYC, KYB & AML

Screening that keeps watching.

BASTION checks a counterparty once, then keeps checking it for as long as you do business. A flag the moment the picture moves, with the reason why and a deadline to act.

The problem

A clean check goes stale the moment it's filed.

Company A FZE was clean on the day it was signed off. Nine months later it looked very different, and a one-off check would still say Low. Drag through 2026, then switch on BASTION.

New investigation

Enter whatever you have on the subject: a name to begin, plus any company, country, email, domain, aliases or related people.

Demo case: the subject, type, country and related names are fixed to the sample file.

Related subjects: people and companies connected to the subject

Each is screened independently; the network's worst risk drives the case.

In action · The verdict

Every score explains itself.

One recommended action, seven risk factors and the finding behind each point. Switch factors off to see how the 80 is built, and why a serious signal sets a floor.

Why this action, not just the score

Control has moved behind a nominee, the director may sit on the board of a newly sanctioned company, and funds pass straight through to it.

Related parties carry adverse records
  • Company X LLC (linked through the director): Critical. Designated on a sanctions list on 22 Sep 2026.
  • Alex Doe (managing director): High. Possible match to a director of Company X LLC.
  • Unverified Possible PEP link: John Roe, the owner, may be related to a serving official.

Unconfirmed links are never scored on their own.

Behind the 80Seven factors
80HIGH

A serious signal sets a floor: the nominee alone holds this case at High 70 or above.

In action · Network mapping

Behind every company, a person in control.

BASTION unwinds ownership layer by layer, through holding companies and nominees, until it reaches a name. Step through the layers or select any party.

Every party is scored on its own record. Risk can't hide behind a holding company.

In action · AI research

AI that reads and explains. It never decides.

The K3 deep scan reads the sources themselves. The Copilot answers questions from that evidence alone, and an analyst makes every call. Ask the Copilot a question.
