Who it's for

Payment operations compliance teams

Payment operations teams may receive surveillance alerts from a specialist provider while their compliance team examines how related controls are working. Bring each alert into a defined assessment context, retaining the provider reference and detection time. The review process gives the Independent Reviewer an explicit decision to make from the available evidence.

How Anti-Money Laundering is set up for you

Provider context

Agree how alert identifiers are matched before configuring intake. AML Program Manager checks that the alert belongs to the selected organization and assessment. Similar subject references across separate organizations require careful handling during the pilot.

Disposition responsibility

Submitted alerts wait for independent review. Approved and Rejected outcomes remain distinguishable, and approved work reaches Completed only after the agreed follow-up. A risk score helps focus attention but does not establish a conclusion about the subject.

Control evidence

Test the control that governs the work using recorded samples and exception counts. Control Tester links the result to evidence so the reviewer can understand how the control operated during the assessment period.

Uncertain actions

When an operation has an unresolved outcome, inspect its receipt before trying again. The team needs to reconcile the recorded action and business decision together, especially after an interrupted submission or disposition request.

The review process gives the Independent Reviewer an explicit decision to make from the available evidence.

Pilot an assessment for an alert-handling control with synthetic provider examples. Include an approved disposition, a rejected one and a submitted alert whose assessment context needs correction. Repeat an accepted operation to rehearse receipt reconciliation. Keep the provider connection limited to the agreed intake scope until ownership and evidence handling are understood. Add corrective work for a failed sample and confirm that the action owner cannot supply the independent retest decision. Review the assessment and alert queues together before broadening the operating scope.
