Neterium Summer Series: The Evolution of Watchlist and Transaction Screening

Episode 2: The Industrialisation of Screening: From 9/11 to the Ukraine crisis (2001–2014)

Narrated by Pascal Aerens, Co-Founder & CPO at Neterium

In this second episode, we explore how screening evolved from an emerging compliance practice into a critical part of global financial infrastructure. Following 9/11, sanctions, KYC and PEP requirements expanded rapidly, driving financial institutions towards continuous monitoring and increasingly automated screening. But with greater scale came a new challenge: false positives. This episode looks at the transformation of screening, and the pressures that ultimately paved the way for a new generation of technology.
