Accountancy is your Expertise; Compliance is ours
Stop wasting hours on manual checks when onboarding new clients. Our software does these checks automatically, so you can focus on working for your clients.
Accountancy firms in the UK must carry out a raft of legally required checks when onboarding every new client. Failure to perform these checks effectively can result in significant fines, reputational damage, and even criminal liability.
These mandatory checks take time and resources, and one unintentional error – missing a high-risk client, incomplete AML or KYC checks, or ineffective monitoring – could be disastrous.

What our Clients say

Why Investigation Engine?
Accountants are crucial in the fight against financial crime.
They are uniquely positioned to detect financial behaviours that may indicate illegal activity.
Money laundering, funding terrorist activity or sanctions busting.
Carrying out these essential checks manually is time-consuming, costly, and inefficient, as it uses resources that would be better spent on client matters.
Investigation Engine can streamline and simplify your screening processes, helping you manage risks linked to people and businesses.
Our system can provide:
- Verification of client passports
- Check if they are subject to sanctions or are a “Politically Exposed Person” (PEP) across global databases and provide real-time alerts.
- Deep dive corporate ownership to uncover hidden beneficial owners.
- Avoid fake and stolen identities by thorough document verification to detect falsified IDs.
- Continuous monitoring for PEP status changes, sanctions, and adverse media.
- Take you through a checklist of critical regulatory items, enabling you to comprehensively assess their risk.
- Up-to-date compliance data integrated into our checks.
- Allow you to download records of your searches and risk assessment so you can demonstrate regulatory compliance.
Additionally, Investigation Engine is not only cost-effective compared to the bloated legacy systems but will provide solutions for actual compliance pain points and is transparent and efficient – no overpromising, just verified solutions.
If you want to avoid regulatory slip-ups, Investigation Engine is the perfect solution.
