Why Adverse Media Screening Matters
In today’s regulatory environment, adverse media monitoring is no longer optional. From AML compliance to ESG oversight, staying ahead of emerging risks requires more than just scanning headlines. It means detecting important risk signals early enough to act.
Yet most tools either overwhelm you with irrelevant hits or miss the long-tail sources where crucial information often appears. Think local publications, industry journals, or niche regional outlets.
Business Radar is designed to change that.
We combine outstanding coverage, full corporate structure insight, and AI-verified matching to deliver only the most relevant alerts, so compliance teams can make confident decisions faster.

Signature Capabilities
Full Corporate Structure View
See the complete picture of a company not just the headline entity. Business Radar maps corporate ownership, subsidiaries, UBOs (ultimate beneficial owners), and linked directors, allowing you to screen the entire network for risk. This ensures you catch hidden connections and potential exposures that might otherwise be missed.
Smart Alert Frequency Prediction
Before finalising your monitoring settings, Business Radar estimates the volume of articles you will receive. This allows analysts to fine-tune filters and avoid overload.
Global & Local Coverage
We scan 154M+ sources across 190+ countries every day, translating articles from 108+ languages. A person could never handle this screening volume and would miss hard-to-find local and industry-specific publications.
AI-Powered Precision
Context validations ensure a reduction of false positives to up to 90% and smart feedback implementations mean our system learns from the remaining 10%. Summaries enable you to gain an understanding of the latest developments within minutes, not hours.
