Real-time risk intelligence unveiled by LSEG Risk Intelligence

LSEG Risk Intelligence has launched World-Check On Demand, a new platform designed to deliver real-time compliance and risk data.

The new platform aims to transform how financial institutions and other organisations access risk intelligence, offering instant access to trusted sanctions, politically exposed persons (PEPs), adverse media, and enforcement actions data. By leveraging an API, the solution provides precise and continuously updated information, helping institutions cut down on over screening, speed up payments, and make more informed decisions.

David Wilson, group head of LSEG Risk Intelligence, said, “Navigating a new era of risk and compliance requires more than just data — it demands intelligence that’s real-time, accurate, and most importantly, trusted. With World-Check On Demand we are delivering just that — enabling our clients to act faster, smarter and with confidence, while reducing operational cost.”

The launch is supported by findings from LSEG’s recent global study, Operating at the Speed of Crime: The Case for Real-Time Risk Intelligence. The survey revealed that 98% of financial institutions view real-time data as essential to their compliance workflows. However, 80% reported that outdated or slow screening processes frequently cause onboarding or payment delays, while 75% said that excessive false positives remain a persistent challenge.

World-Check On Demand uses AI-enabled data to help compliance teams detect risk earlier, improve response times, and streamline operations while maintaining transparency and data provenance. By reducing false positives, the solution supports frictionless onboarding and minimises compliance bottlenecks identified in the survey.

The product can be integrated into existing technology stacks via flexible APIs, making it compatible with platforms ranging from digital onboarding systems to real-time transaction monitoring tools. This enables institutions to act with speed and confidence, enhancing both operational efficiency and risk management.
