AML & KYC
A signal layer your AML programme can actually defend.
Your KYC and AML controls are only as good as the news, corporate and adverse-media signal feeding them. Hizer ships a continuous, multilingual, enriched stream — built to be embedded into onboarding, ongoing monitoring, transaction screening and SAR workflows.
What you get
Onboarding with real coverage
Screen prospects against adverse media and corporate news from the markets they actually operate in — including non-English regional and trade press your standard feeds miss.
Ongoing monitoring without the noise
Deduplication, entity resolution and structured enrichment cut alert noise materially — so analysts work on genuine signals instead of variants of the same story.
SAR-ready evidence
Every alert ties back to the article, source, language and timestamp — giving SAR narratives, audit responses and regulator queries a clean, defensible trail.
Where it earns its keep
Banks and payments providers
Strengthen onboarding, KYC refresh and transaction monitoring with multilingual adverse media and corporate news that closes the English-only blind spot.
Fintechs and neobanks
Get institutional-grade adverse-media and corporate-news coverage without standing up your own ingestion and enrichment pipeline.
RegTech and screening vendors
Embed Hizer as the upstream signal layer in your AML / KYC platform — improving detection latency, language coverage and evidence quality for every client at once.
Your questions, answered
Is Hizer a sanctions list or PEP list?
No. Hizer is the news and corporate-news data layer that runs alongside list-based screening. We deliver continuous adverse-media and corporate signal in 135 languages — your sanctions, PEP and watchlist providers remain the source of truth for designations.
Can we tie coverage to specific identifiers?
Yes. Entities — companies, persons and organizations — are extracted and resolved on every article, so coverage can be pivoted by entity, not just by keyword.
How do you help reduce alert fatigue?
Deduplication, entity resolution, language detection and topic / event tagging together let you cut variants and route only material hits into case management. Analysts work on signal, not noise.
How do we integrate this into our AML stack?
Through the News API for query-based onboarding and ad-hoc reviews, and Firehose for full-stream ingestion into screening engines, case management systems and data warehouses.
