Lursoft AML reports are available free of charge until 31 March!

In response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, many countries around the world have imposed sanctions against Russian companies, organisations and elites. According to the information available on Lursoft, more than 1340 entities from Russia have already been included in the sanctions lists of the UN, European Union, United Kingdom, OFAC and Latvia. 

With more and more Russian individuals appearing in sanctions lists of the UN, European Union, UK, US Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and Latvia, businesses need to perform the due diligence of their business partners, customers and suppliers even more responsibly and carefully.

To promote responsibility for the business environment and the sanctions imposed, Lursoft users are provided with free access to AML reports until 31 March of this year.

The AML reports are based on the risk assessment criteria set out in the Law on the Prevention of Money Laundering and Terrorism and Proliferation Financing and the SRS Guidelines, thus simplifying the obligation for businesses to carry out risk assessments under the law. 

The AML statement includes a comprehensive risk assessment. This includes the automated screening of companies and their related persons (officials, members, beneficial owners) on the sanctions lists. The checks carried out in AML reports are based on the data published in primary sources – sanctions lists, the Register of Enterprises of the Republic of Latvia, etc. – Lursoft ensures that the information is regularly updated. This is essential in the current situation, as business decisions must be based only on up-to-date and truthful data. 

Risks assessed in the AML report:

• Legal form;
• Insolvency;
• Liquidation process;
• Suspension;
• Suspension of economic activity;
• Tax debt;
• Verification of legal address;
• Country risks for company’s owners, beneficial owners and those in their chains of control;
• Sanctions list screening of companies, their owners, officials, beneficial owners and persons in their chains of control.

If the company’s activities present an increased risk, a warning will appear in the report. If necessary, the AML report provides an opportunity to conduct an in-depth research on any of the risk factors.
