Darren Holdstock, Global Head of Complementors at Swift, said: “We are pleased to extend the benefit of our Transaction Screening Service and Securities View solutions to more institutions through connectivity with Broadridge. Transaction Screening Service means institutions can securely screen incoming and outgoing messages against the most up-to-date sanctions lists.

“We take our regulatory compliance obligations very seriously. We are committed, with the support of Broadridge, to further strengthen our control over sanction compliance by implementing a real-time and fully integrated screening in our payment processes,” said Julien Muet, Head of Corporate Treasury, TÜV Rheinland.
“As such, we turned to Broadridge in their capacity as our trusted sole outsourcing partner for all of our Swift services. We have been impressed by their professionalism, service standards and depth of knowledge relating to sanctions screening.”
