Sentinel Money Laundering
Sentinel Money Laundering supports your strategy of detection and prevention of illegal funds concealment, thus avoiding possible loss, in terms of both money and the reputation of your organization. The system allows you to specify profiles in bank accounts with the aim of analyzing their behavior and monitoring the tendencies of their transactions. In addition, it improves the efficiency and performance of your research team, since it allows you to determine the workflow and the actions to be taken during the analysis and revision of an account that has unusual activity.

Security
Sentinel is a multi-user application with strict security measures and user control such as:

  • Access to the system with a username and password.
  • Detailed privileges for each option.
  • Individual user-security to view the information by business strategic unit.
  • Control of modifications to key options in the system.
  • Security policies defined by the Administrator to request a new password from the user.

  • Menus and standard toolbars on all screens.
  • Dual interface, which allows the user to view the information as tables or forms.
  • Options to search or filter information on every screen.
  • One-step customized report generator with the data on every screen.
  • Ability to move or hide columns, group information, etc. It also stores the preferences of the user’s last session .
  • Convenient data export on every screen of the system.

Flexibility in the Definition of Profiles
A profile is the characterization of the behavior of an account. Sentinel Money Laundering allows you to generate profiles to analyze the behavior of the accounts and to monitor the tendencies of their transactions. When an account alters its profiles, it is adopting an unexpected behavior, so Sentinel issues an alert indicating that unusual activity exists.

The generation of profiles is completely flexible and dynamic, since it allows you to use any criteria that can be taken from the transaction.

The recalculation of profiles is carried out automatically according to a schedule defined by the user. Thus, manual processes that rely on human control are avoided.

Approval of Profiles for Accounts
For a profile to be valid for the system, it must be approved for every account. Sentinel distributes a queue of profile approvals to the people in charge of the accounts, whether they are the account executives, the compliance officials, or whoever is appointed.

The approval of a profile is made through a system of points based on hierarchy. This means that depending on the hierarchy defined by the organization, the account executives, branch managers, compliance officials, etc. may have a higher number of points to cast their vote. For example: if the points of an account executive are not enough to approve a particular account profile, he or she can ask for the support of another account executive, branch manager or compliance official in order to have it approved.

The system monitors the profiles that are pending approval automatically, and based on the specified hierarchy, it elevates the situation to the higher levels.

Automatic Distribution of Analysis Activity
Sentinel allows you to create task queues automatically in order to assign the revision of unusual activity of accounts to the different people in charge. In so doing, each person in charge can revise their own analysis queues or those of other users, granted they have the corresponding privileges.

The system automatically monitors the accounts that have been detected with unusual activity, and which have not received attention from the people in charge. Based on the specified hierarchy, the system elevates this situation to the higher levels.

Visualization of Unusual Activity
Sentinel provides several screens to revise the unusual activity of accounts, which can be done by profile or by account.

Once the person in charge revises the unusual activity of the accounts, he or she may record all the actions carried out during his or her revision through follow-up cases

Data Analysis
The system provides screens that allow you to make queries about all the transactions and the history of an account. At the same time, you can obtain statistical information regarding attention to and rotation of follow-up cases.

Moreover, Sentinel has the capability to send e-mail messages with information about the unusual activity of the accounts to key personnel within the organization
