# Sanctions and identifiers

> EU and OFAC sanctions list screening plus LEI identifiers for Slovak entities, with an audit trail of every check.

Screening against sanctions lists is a statutory duty for a range of businesses. An LEI identifier links a Slovak entity to the global financial system.

## Screening with an audit trail

What matters in a sanctions check is not only the result but the record of it. Every response states which lists were checked and as of when, which is exactly what an inspection asks for.

We compare against the EU consolidated list and the OFAC lists on an ongoing basis, so a new entry does not wait for your next manual review.

## LEI in context

The Legal Entity Identifier is a global 20-character code required for reporting under financial market regulation. For most companies it is irrelevant; for those that trade in securities or derivatives it is mandatory.
