Identify potential third-party risks – quickly and cost-effectively

The third-party risk landscape continues to evolve. As a result, organisations find themselves tasked with a range of challenges, including building resilient supply chains, identifying potential third-party risks, managing costs, meeting increasing reporting requirements, and many others.

Moreover, new risks – including cyber, ESG, financial and geopolitical – continue to emerge, and at the same time, firms must comply with a growing number of global regulations governing third-party risk management. All of this must be managed at a time when compliance, risk management and procurement teams are experiencing reduced resources and pressure to “do more with less.”

To help you better manage these challenges and build a holistic third-party risk management programme, we have developed our Third-Party Risk Screener, a single solution incorporating multiple third-party risk intelligence data sets that allows you to gain an initial understanding of potential risk across your supplier and distribution networks.

The solution helps you identify instances where more in-depth investigations, such as enhanced due diligence, may be necessary.

Risk data sets

Access trusted risk intelligence data

Leveraging our best-in-class World-Check data, Third-Party Risk Screener combines several additional risk data sets to help you make more informed decisions:

  • Corporate entity data: This data set draws on two industry-leading sources to provide maximum global coverage. Combined, they contain over 500 million records of entities around the world.
  • Compliance risk data: Our compliance risk data is powered by LSEG World-Check, our leading screening service that accelerates and simplifies third-party compliance processes by enabling detailed screening and monitoring of individuals and entities across your supply chain network.
  • Adverse media: Our Media Check solution leverages advanced machine learning capabilities to filter and refine volumes of unstructured content from over 10,500 print and web sources, covering multiple industry sectors and languages.
