Exposure

High risk2 of 5 components assessed — no composite shown, because how much was read is itself unknown here
Sanctions and debarments92

Sanctioned by 5 authorities: EU, Canada, Switzerland SECO, OFAC, UK OFSI. Confirmed present in a source snapshot within the last 90 days.

Jurisdiction70

Russia is named on a jurisdiction designation list — European Commission, EU list of high-risk third countries (AMLD Art. 9), section IV: “High-risk third countries which are not identified as being subject to calls for action or increased monitoring by the FATF, but whose membership in that international standard-setter is suspended”. The designation is of the jurisdiction, not of this record.

Not scored

Company associations

Not scored. No company role is recorded for this person, which is an absence of records rather than a finding.

Evidence coverage

Not scored. The evidence ledger records which sources were read for a COMPANY; it holds no per-person rows, so there is no coverage figure to price in here. The sources behind this record are listed under Evidence.

Adverse media

Not scored. Media coverage is not linked to individuals in this system at all, only to companies, and even there it covers a small fraction of the records.

Band drawn from the components that could be measured, methodology v5. The unscored ones above are gaps in what was read, not findings of nothing. Not a compliance determination — check the underlying listings before acting on anything here.
