Two deadlines, start to finish.

Report suspicion within two days. Freeze designated persons without delay. Here is how Sieve handles each.

Suspicious transaction reportPOCAMLA s.44
  1. Case marked suspicious. The two-day clock starts.
  2. Draft assembled. The AI drafts the reason for suspicion, grounds and transaction table.
  3. Officer files. Your reporting officer finalises the report and files it with the FRC on goAML.

No tipping off: nothing about a report reaches customer-facing API responses.

  1. Lists checked hourly. UN and OFAC direct; the Kenya FRC domestic list via a licensed feed.
  2. Whole base rescreened. Each new designation is checked against every customer at once.
  3. Match confirmed, funds frozen. A second reviewer confirms each match before funds are frozen.
Beyond Kenya and Nigeria
