LSEG Risk Intelligence has introduced World-Check Verify — a cloud-native screening API designed to embed compliance directly into payment and onboarding flows — run by Amazon Web Services.
The firm says it enables secure, instant and enterprise-grade screening to assist financial institutions in managing compliance in modern payment environments— as instant payments, embedded finance and regulatory demands like the EU Instant Payments regulation remodel compliance requirements.
The introduction of the API comes after LSEG released a 2025 global risk intelligence survey which reported that 77 per cent of financial institutions say manual review workload is a key barrier to compliance.
Alison Kay, vice president and managing director of AWS UKI says: “The World Check Verify solution is created from the combination of AWS’s secure, scalable cloud infrastructure and LSEG’s World-Check intelligence.
“This cloud-native solution scales instantly to meet demand spikes, reduces infrastructure overhead, and leverages advanced analytics to transform the manual workload burden that 77 per cent of institutions struggle with into an automated, efficient workflow.”
