Adverse media screening detects negative coverage from reliable news sources and publications that may indicate a heightened risk of involvement in unethical or illegal activity. This type of screening helps uncover reputational risk that may not appear in formal databases. The adverse media screening category includes:
  • Environment: Negative reports related to environmental violations or harmful ecological practices.
  • Social & labour: Media articles highlighting poor labor practices, discrimination, or violations of social standards.
  • Competitive & financial: Coverage of anti-competitive behavior, fraud, insolvency, or financial misconduct.
  • Regulatory: Reports on investigations, fines, or enforcement actions by regulators and supervisory authorities.
These sources are continuously monitored to identify emerging risks associated with individuals or entities.
