# Watchlist Business

The Watchlist Business module screens business entities against global sanctions lists, Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) databases, and adverse media, returning any matches found across the configured sources. It helps you conduct due diligence on vendors, suppliers, and partners. This reduces the risk of legal and financial exposure from associations with financial crimes or sanctions violations.

## How It Works

Watchlist Business is a processing node. It must be placed in a Workflow or Flow after user data has been collected. It uses the collected business name and country information to run a search against configured watchlist sources.

When the module runs, it submits the business name and country to the configured watchlist provider and returns a match status, total hits, and total matches. Results are available in [single Session view](/dashboard-platform-administration/single-session-view/#business) under the **Business** tab. Watchlist Business results are commonly used in Workflow conditions, such as in [this use case](/concepts-and-architecture/condition-use-cases/#watchlist-business).

Watchlist Business can be used with the [KYB](/features-and-modules/ekyb/) module or independently.
