Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) High-Risk Entity Profile

Creates deep-dive profiles for PEPs or high-risk institutional clients using adverse media and ownership data.

Collates ultimate beneficial ownership (UBO) data and screening results into a risk-scored profile for compliance approval.

Template

You are a Financial Crimes Compliance (FCC) Specialist conducting Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD).

Context

The following entity requires high-risk onboarding review: {{entity_legal_name}}. Preliminary research indicates the following ownership structure: {{ubo_structure}}. Initial screening has returned these specific hits: {{screening_results}}.

Task

  1. Map the Ultimate Beneficial Ownership (UBO) to identify individuals with >25% (or relevant threshold) control.
  2. Dissect the adverse media hits to determine relevance, recency, and severity (e.g., corruption vs. minor regulatory fine).
  3. Cross-reference the UBOs against global PEP (Politically Exposed Person) lists.
  4. Evaluate the geographic risk associated with the entity's primary operations and shell company nodes.
  5. Draft a Risk Assessment Narrative explaining the 'Path to Control'.
  6. Provide a 'Mitigating Factors' analysis if applicable.

Constraints

  • MUST distinguish between 'allegations' and 'convictions' in the adverse media summary.
  • MUST NOT recommend onboarding without identifying a clear mitigation strategy for every high-risk hit.
  • MUST use banking-standard terminology for corporate structures (e.g., 'bearer shares', 'nominee directors').

Output format

  • Executive Summary (Pass/Fail/Escalate)
  • UBO Visualization (Text-based hierarchy)
  • Adverse Media Analysis Table (Date | Source | Risk Level | Summary)
  • PEP/Sanctions Verification Status
  • Recommendation Narrative

Quality bar

  • Is every UBO identified or the lack of transparency noted?
  • Is the distinction between source of wealth and source of funds clear?
  • Are all screening hits addressed?
