Agentic Adverse Media Screening

From Alert Fatigue to Automated Adjudication

Industry:

Banking & Financial Services

Function:

Compliance, AML, KYC

Region:

Middle East, North Africa, Asia

The Challenge

Traditional adverse media screening systems overwhelm compliance teams with false positives, fragmented data, and rigid rule-based workflows. Analysts spent days manually validating alerts across disconnected sources—slowing onboarding and increasing regulatory risk.

The Agentic Solution

Newform implemented an agentic screening architecture where specialized agents collaborate in real time:

  • Researcher Agent scans 200K+ global sources via MCP

  • Resolver Agent matches entities using DOB, address, and career history

  • Linguist Agent distinguishes true risk language from neutral mentions

  • Adjudicator Agent scores risk and drafts SAR / EDD narratives

Agents communicate autonomously through A2A orchestration, delivering contextual decisions with full audit trails.

Outcomes

  • 80% reduction in false positives

  • HNW onboarding cut from 4 days to 15 minutes

  • Multilingual screening across Arabic, Cyrillic, and Latin sources

  • Transparent “chain-of-thought” for every decision

  • Zero human intervention for routine adjudication

Our agents don’t just find news, they understand it.

All agents operate on a product-agnostic knowledge layer, decoupled from legacy silos.

Outcomes

  • 35% productivity gain through reduced manual lookup

  • 30% faster client response times

  • 25% improvement in cross-sell effectiveness

  • Policy-aligned communication across all banking lines

  • Full traceability for every recommendation

A digital relationship officer that never sleeps.
