Alert. I say the country will be ready to defend itself, assigned a warning against foreign aggression. Then form i shall take and then as a supposition, according to the information we have forces of a foreign power. Im preparing an act of aggression against media and its people in coordination with echo us and im to terrace groups deities 1st. I love the last visit of us you faced with the threat of intervention that is becoming clear through preparation from a neighboring country. New jazz as space is closed. As of today for oil apples until further notice. Any attempts to violate National Aspects will be met with an energetic and instantaneous response. How does air as child stop for this Monitoring Development support us from it center goals, capital dot com . It is a sign that there is being a complete rebuttal by the code. It is of these dimensions as being made by echo us. That is space lets not forget was closed initially. When this course is on folded july, the 26. Um it was reopen again on august the 1st, but yeah. Sign that as this deadline is closed, then as you accumulate isnt not taking any risk. So i think importantly well attention now goes to echo axis. Next, move at glasses. Always said since the crisis began, that all avenues would be explode. And that any kind of Ministry Intervention would only be used as a last result. We understand those avenues are still being explored and we will be speaking to analysts throughout the day. And theyve been highlighting some of the problems that echo s and known echo echo as members of the neighbors of news. Yeah. All facing, namely, people like the countries like algeria and chat algeria today saying that its a completely rejected any notion of any military intervention. But at glass saying that it was a danger to algeria. Chad also saying that they want to know militarily, although chad have been very instrumental at least in trying to negotiate and mediate as these crises continues. But of course, theyre a huge phase about this, potentially whitening exploding into a regional conflict. A regional, were looking at 5. So in mollys saying that any intervention by echo, as in the j would be considered a declaration of war on those countries to and everybody in the region is very nervous indeed about the possibility of all groups like i say. So theyll call it a taking advantage of any further chaos in the region. And of course, thousands of people have already died and millions of being forced to flee their home is because of the security situation that is being so bad for well a decade. Also now in that region, so yeah, were waiting for some sort of response from echo as its perhaps not surprising that theres yeah, coolie to so announced a re closure of the read space. Is where the forces of killed 3 palestinian south of janine and occupied. Westbank soldiers opened fire with the vehicle, which they said was on its way to carry out. And the time i send you an honest groups of threatening to respond to these 35 people had been killed in thousands more injured optics, rang the rails and talk the stones send probates. The government says investigational focus on mechanical failure. What possible sabotaged and hundreds of people who routed in pocket start administered kashmir and protests against a sentencing. A former Prime Minister him on con. Hes being held in a high security prison in punjab, provence, or for a quote handed him a 3 Year Prison Sentence for corruption. Those all the headlines more use of to algebra . Well do state you the, you know, the 2019 the head of a u. K. Based palestinian lobby group made an announcement outside the role, coats of justice in london. I speak on my behalf and as i say, i dont mind seeing anything since i dont see my bank account. Im that lawyer is representing mode you dial 0. Had reached an out of Court Settlement with a company hed been battling for several of the 15. The closing of our banking frustrated b. C, b, l z a. Had claimed that the Palestinian Return center had been really listed on a data base. And that this had caused some serious financial difficult about that we had the navy and the them to dismiss him by watch it on their secret that there be as if you do, im misleading. I already gave you the world check data base is now also known as resend it to if its current toner, its no secret. Its one of the databases used by the banks to help them comply with government financial regulation. No, your customer is the term they used to identify exactly who that dealing with enhance, avoid exposure to Financial Crime. Hey, why say from a bank . No, your customer is an vice. So part of bikes the on boarding process that is tracing on the new customer. And by taking that relationship and it requires you to ensure that you know who that person is and that, that is verified. And you understand the risk that that person brings to the bank in terms of Financial Crime, data bases like from affinity, if, well, check, look for and collate data for the subscribers on individuals and organizations that might depose of financial risk. What they call politically exposed persons, p piece, or pets. On names on the sanctions list. All who have attracted negative media coverage. In this program time around this whole level, g 0 is arabic channels examines these data bases to the opponents of the global, regulate to re framework is going to come back Financial Crime. But how transparent until they and what impact can they have on those that appear in the in terms of the bottom case, it is dominated by 2 main tires, which is dow jones and roof finicky, which used to be positive Thompson Reuters organization in my experience, i come across both extremely frequently and a great many other providers on i c. And the engine of what they provide is us as a dow jones, as a preventative list. So they power lots of other providers lists as well. I think of the preventative has probably the greatest rates in terms of the global fines, but the honestly the advice, pretty dominant plans market. But individuals and organizations have sometimes found themselves on these databases without the knowledge it can come as a shock to discover theyve been categorized as being linked with, for example, terrorism, an American Security adviser called Chris Vickery got hold of a copy of the well check data base in 2016, including what he called its terrorism blacklist. Tom earl ms. Hills spoke to vickery and asked how hed found the list of over 2000000 names. I found the world check database by looking for whats known as couch d, be instances. Its a type of database that can be access through a web browser and it runs on a specific port. So if something has Data Available on the couch, the, the port and is accessible to the public internet, you can browse it. Yeah, i was just lucky and found it, i guess persistence pays off when youre looking through lots and lots of data ever go into while you find some real gems and of i found it downloaded because it was publicly accessible and open and available to the public mouse or a time or oswell, the vicar, his initial thoughts were when the very 1st big reaction i had was when i was looking through the different rose and i saw people marked as a terrorist. Thats when i knew that, oh my god, this is a list that is probably not something that is normally out there. And then i realized if this is a list marking people for things of that nature who created this list, you know, so i had to look and see who created world check, but they have a bad joints in founder, also executive chairman and world. A check will check was founded in 2000 by a south african born businessman called david left the the company was registered in london and started as a Risk Mitigation database. There was a whole host of scandals like sizes early ninetys that caused the banks to stop reassessing, how they managed risk. And at the same time, it was a significant like with drugs problem. Imagine. And so what, what are these things conspired . The bank study to the multiple choice, the risk, and there was the formation of defense Selection Task force, which is the global party responsible for, for providing the definitions of pets. And, and for steering bank seem to have to manage those risks. The market for data grew to include agencies and institutions in every sector, particularly after the september 11th attacks in new york and the World Trade Center in 2000 the one a 3 minute all sized ice of ice. These widened significant. They after 911. 00, probably because it forced the united states, particularly to focus much more on funding of terrorism because it was an area that although it had previously been legislative for him that in the us, they probably werent as robust as may be, have in europe whether you hear the European Union had already instigated some strict rules. They give us often item pasta, think of the country attacked, and it specifics that he caused the price of focus on the funding of terrorism as much as money, long drinking and organized crime. So changed the landscape definitively. David left and declined to be interviewed. Partly because in 2011 will check was acquired by Thomson Reuters as part of the governance risk and compliance unit representative will check is still registered to the same address as thompson. Reuters in the canary will Business District of london. But you know, tube of 2018 reuters announced the sale of a majority of its well check shares to the private equity group. Blackstone in 2018 Thompson Reuters. So part of the state in west check. So they sold 55 percent of the company to investors, but some, some noise is still owns 45 percent or for finishes, which is the new name of the company that has 12 check. Thompson reuters is a Canadian Media conglomerate, but its made several data related acquisition function voices is a Financial Service agency and it has an interest in making money out to Financial Services. Well, childcare is a very profitable business. Subscriptions can run into the millions of pounds. There was a lot of money to the 9th and the set to a well check is a tight space of millions of people and organizations around the world who claims to be high risk people. Because of some connection with terrorism or crime, or because of the political position. And this is a system that banks around the world to use to check that customers to find out if theyre doing business with somebody who could pose problems for the bank later on. In an online brochure, resend it to the world, checks thats out its objectives unlisted. Its different areas of activity including sanction. Screening, monitoring, politically exposed persons, anti Money Laundering, countering the financing of terrorism on mt. Bribery and corruption it said it covered 240. 00 countries. How do a full 100 reset channel is until its about the number of sources used and direct quotes help of the use, its growing and growing. Until today, it has 3000000 people and organizations listed, and its owned by and Large Companies and, and is used by most of the banks around the world for a long time. The contents of the state space have been kept secret. And its only in the last few years, thanks to the work of john list and campaign is that weve begun to learn a little bit more about some of the issues with the state space. So for example, Finsbury Park most had their account closed, and they eventually discovered that listing and well check that was still connecting them with terrorism. Even though most had 9 more connection with terrorism. The finsbury paul, most skews in ne london, is attended by hundreds of worship is afraid a noon today its considered a model of community relations, but its attracted an adverse media and the Police Attention in 1997. When jacob comes around muscling. And so his radical views became the amount of the most was closed in 2003 for his perceived links to terrorism and reopened in 2005 with a new Management Team and supported by the Muslim Association of britain. The changes at the mosque and now widely perceived as a success story. Putting 2014, the management was shocked to discover that the names were on well checks. Data base, as being linked to terrorism will check was still on the Thomson Reuters ownership at that time. And the, and the whole by the, the, they call the be in jeopardy of one, which was the, the com a he is Auto Community as well. My not in motion and he thought the other sort of the most youd when our what the hed be be, i mean be on the whole, most of the case. But at cosette to comb my work to check. Oh cool. Some of the Community Center buried then bank, hsbc. So they will not be in the if you 7 my case and say its on the level one, then she had a li, the bit office, the each of the is bank of for the, for the she said live motion one, a physical that im waiting most with the if you, savage, it is by the and some of the Lessons Learned them in as bbc and what else in bbc and what all of them and them upon. But if he hasnt moved off the thought, well, hold on a female life, imagine holiday and what else . If you that you can look at the health of the and the, as with most with on the fact that a half feet was the assessment, had them some sort of way to upload one check teacher. Oh boy, 1st broke. The sco make for the bbc. I got the bbc to make a radio program, and i presented this we discovered the existence of a confidential data base. It was called world checked and by Thomson Reuters at the time. See how any have one catch a big cold travers which is a very serious thing is we will know very, very serious if you kind of deal with people who link to time service. And uh and so we discovered that the rest of the status report mosque was listed service from memory. I think mr. Cause bob was very shocked as he should be. So and, and those ill be rang up. Well check on. We spoke to. Ringback check and i had a conversation and i said that they said that we always go should have the correct procedures. So Something Like that, like comfortable, never ejected content. When wasa chemistry, it depends, if theres a lot fee, definitely include the other board, the chip when i pick that up on you from. And thats hell be on the whole. Com on if im a sure to cut the dont satellite has been at the thought in a, a when it was such a basement. I mean, that have you gotta have all that had to fit with some organizations that would allow us to work with not at the, in the, in the who knows. And if you have the and for the a come as you send us the has lovely and a susceptible football field. And thats what to on him. And then when im in the hospital and then so that it kind of difficult and the whole number, leave it normally we have the are probably gonna win. If we havent seen that, donna has sent us stuff as much under the following defense brief pause. Most case, other organizations and individuals did take legal action against will check including magic l z, a head of the palestinian Retention Center in london. Ill say a decided to basil a civil action against well check off to his own. The sense has Bank Accounts with both closed the p o. C provides a media platform for the palestinian diaspora. In 2015, it was given consultative status of the us as a Non Governmental Organization with the center campaigns to increase awareness of the palestinian cause. And for the human and legal rights of palestinian refugees, but will check and put the center and most of those in, in the countering terrorism funding category of its data base to which mr. I was in tech section. However, in january 2019 as a as lawyer has reached an out of Court Settlement with well checks, then owners, Thompson Reuters. They agreed to remove his name from the terrorism category to pay him 13000. 00 us dollars in damages. Its an ego, and if ive done to the purchased legal system, the judges and the quotes prefer people to federal cases. So to be honest with you, the majority of cases like this we would expect to settle in well trucks case. So far we actually have settled every single case. So in other words, theres never been a full good case against the world change because all of them they said like they did with this one, with mr. Marginal via they normally agree that the classification was a breach of the data, protection of their pay, some compensation, and they offered to pay the legal costs. And thats it. Whenever you have time on those with caught email or s mountain highly have uh had that was something that you that eh, how about a 5 year old or no mazda tim . I loved them physically, the product, most of the behalf of the, the, the by email to tow. It does seem a lot of logic as well as that, and thats what it has in california. I can see it in the yes button or remember cuz it all with us off. Your thoughts on my next step is mama loves you can get started with 5 because they get since bit off by the most with that and a half by 11 s mt and what was with them twice and yeah. Like personally, you can have the, well i have, i remember that your 1st and then and getting it and youre going to have the final, hasnt it that i said if last and with a get of it was all about and as you the why fi and why im and that had to, you know, me as customer because it was the only my cousin i would see a lot of animals i dont remember, but not the sort of like a film so much. Thank you. Have a lot that on my so the see if its enough but thats the yes yes, but of course youll see a lot of fear and thats all about it. I just, oh, but was as i have not done what i just, thats good cause thing with them. I would have you apply to how to turn in, what are you those the, my adult life and why so . So what, how know, how are you, im not going but the home is that mine, im actually a little hot memory here for what i have really what will that ship it hasnt even was this that i know distribution was a once the Palestinian Returns and to was on the list. What low check tends to do is that all the direct us or the senior people also get listed individuals. So mr. Imagine those, it was listed only because of his connection to the Palestinian Return center. We would come around this, how us, how easy it was to communicate with will check at that time. It is possible to have some email communication with them. But generally speaking then not easy people to me to talked about. And i put in that faith is back in my what this we have problem over. Yeah. But it doesnt have enough about what about what level for the bottom that came up when i picked this up. But really, back to me, this is whats called the statement in of and cold. In the case between mode you dial 0 and royce has limited who had the majority share and well check up the time its set. So the royce has also to settle mr. L z is claims the damage is fagan, and that royce has agreed to move his profile from the terrorism category of the database and pay his legal costs. Really just also agreed that it would list mister l. Z is denial of any personal connection to how much of the Muslim Brotherhood and he believed that their inclusion on the so called terrorism list by israel was politically motivated. However, the 2 parties also agreed that quote, mr. L z is profile can continue to include references to his designations by the is really minister of defense. As a main operative of how much departments in europe, how much headquarters in europe, and how much office in europe tomorrow miss. How also emailed hsbc . The bank that closed the accounts of the p, o. C, and the finsbury pump most to ask about the closure of those accounts. But he never received a reply. One of the come to complaints against these, this is the reason why people cant get access to the Banking System that has some merit, but its not entirely true because it is not the role roofing. This is all that jones to decide in a binary. Yes, no, not, no way that people should have access to banking the road is to provide information to the best of their ability to bind to then apply what we was told that im Risk Appetite to as i said, the nation tom i contacted representative and spoke to the head of communications, but he declined the request for an interview however, and elected to l just 0, dated the 13th of june, 2019. The legal representative said of the finsbury comp, most, we are not to way of any evidence that its bank account was closed. As a consequence of the must inclusion on the database and the quotes did not approve any such suggestion. Time or ill miss how then looked at a completely different case. Thats a british full magenta list. Peter Humphrey Humphrey ran a Risk Advisory firm in shanghai. But he and his wife were arrested and found themselves imprisoned in china for 2 years. After his release, humphrey concluded that being listed on the well check data base had led to the closure of his Bank Accounts in 2015. Im all right, and my wife were released from china in, in the middle of june 2015. So i was trying to find a new bank who would actually accept my money and i went to several private banks in london. But i also went to the city bank in london and sat down with them and said, you know, this is my situation. I would like to open that account so i can move my money from hsbc to a new account. I was very helpful bank officer with setting up an account for me and then he said he had to run some, some checks on the system. And all of a sudden this is sort of alarm bells ringing on his computer and the red flag was popping up. Um and he said, oh is not letting me do this is not letting me enroll you as a customer. And i said, well, why can you show it to me . So he turned his computer monitor around to let me see it. And there i could see a day is that by system showing red flags on certain newspaper headlines from chinese newspapers about our case. And i asked him which databases the bank was using, and he, he mentioned, well check. And he mentioned lexisnexis to me humphrey soul. The data bases had web links to news reports of an investigation he conducted for the pharmacy to coal company. Black. So smith, klein, alger 0 us to be sensitive if it wish to comment on the pizza humphrey case. But they decline coming up in port to the source is these data bases use a role in the Public Domain . But how reliable all day as a means of identifying potential Financial Crime with all the reputational damage that can entail. If a story is counted, lets say by voice is already paid associated reprice. So, or also try with these organizations. You can reasonably accept the taken care of, of the factual content within that story. If its on some of these wordpress plug, so you have to be more cautious about that. So impacts the expected to apply judgment to those of the after 300 years of the danish calling as ation green, those results are attracting international interest. But the young generation is determined to own its future. No matter its different. Its a rock or a dispute on say a student at the politician tackled age of issues with their powerful new voice. Witness the fight for greenland on a jersey to every thing do. Hes being analyzed, its being, its being measured for intelligence agencies. Are they a task to do things in secret that are unlawful or politically embarrassing . All of the colleagues that i knew show was to retire from the n s a. They could not stand by and see all the work that they had done being used for mass or balance. Digital dissidents on our to 0 or imprisoned without trial to, ill just say richard, unless remain behind bars in egypt. A hot wood didnt seem detained since february 2020 the drop yet a ship detained since august 2021 which is 0 calls for the Immediate Release of its generalists detained in egypt. Journalism is not a crime. The and the global fight against Financial Crime companies, including banks, are required to carry out checks on customers to ensure their only dealing with legitimate businesses and low binding individuals. So they subscribe to data bases, which harvest information on companies, organizations and individuals that might pose some kind of risk because of that politics being on a sanctions list, or simply by having attracted bad publicity. The dow jones lexisnexis and representative will check run such databases. But tell me around this whole about just the arabic wanted to examine how they gather their information, on what sources they use. Journalist tom wills kept a copy of the 2014 well check database when it was made public in 2016. He searched for 2 organizations that had taken legal action against. Well check in the u. K. The palestinian Retention Center of defense recall most to find out what sources the data base that you went listing in there since his majestys you yeah. So we can see that he was listed in the terrorism category in 2014 and says countries listed palestine. And it says hes the director general of the palestinian resend center in london. Which is essentially the city i sent to the Homeless Office in europe and to the most in brotherhood. And then thats a series of link stats about pages where theyve drawn this information. So weve got websites, quotes, global, and b welch and another one called global and b reports. And weve also got 2 websites from israel. Weve got c is randy governments website and a organization to cause itself terrorism info as well. But many of the governments around the world do not agree with his rails classification of who is a type of list. So the question is, why is a London Company that is providing information to the bank . So like, well, its facing, its information on the safe side of just one country. So the data bases do use Information Published in the online news, articles, or sources. But tell me or ill miss how wanted to dig a bit deeper and talk to someone with inside knowledge of a database to understand exactly how they use online sources. So he went to miami to meet kenneth richer. Theyve done some consultancy for well check any commercial database, any commercial off the shelf database of high risk individuals must use open source materials. That means news and magazine articles. That may mean court cases open source is necessary because the Banking Client must be able to demonstrate on demand to regular way. Or the information came from that he potentially used to make a decision about a client purchase journalist peach. Oh, boy has already gone into the use of open source data in some detail. This is a very serious problem with us highlighting. Not as you see, weve done a lot of a search and you find the organizations. Heres a picture of the story ive written about this, you know, website secure accused of promising file arrives and these them a feedback agendas that being that being used as sole sees on the web check websites. Organizations like the us think, think look, gates done, Institute Organizations like g had watch the david horowitz, freedom sensor. These are organizations which is judgment cannot be trusted or relied on and have a it might view an idea of logical agenda, in which case its irresponsible to use organizations like, but ive used them as sources using websites like these, those Public Domain sources is problematic when they have their own political agenda. The examples peter own used a note for their on t is lemming views. So tell me or examine the number of arable most of the names listed on the well check database leaked in 2016. He found thousands of names from all over the world. One of the issues that you had for the 2nd with the sanctions last time was the adverse news that comes from it is that it is disproportionately targeted towards a tigris. And then thats because 5 found the way our service. So ill tell you to tell me about and i sail devices. So whatever you want to call it, a significant population solve that list in a way that might be why supremacy, so either jewish supremacy. So whatever or not its going to be me, it should be b as an investigative journalist whos written for online news outlets and worked as an investigator for the human rights and g o. Retrieve as well as for the International Committee of the red cross. Somebody want to check i think the muslims of disproportionately affected by this kind of service simply because most things are more generally the victim of accusations, aboard bunch accusations, unfounded accusations, and what of service like . Well try it does is it shows us any kind of online accusation. Without much scripts and the about the source of the accusation, i dont find any particular unusual focus on muslims or arabs in any of the 4 major commercial off the shelf databases of high risk individuals. But as a matter of practice, theyre going to contain more and more of entries of arab nationals and muslim nationals because of the global war on terrorism. I think what we can say is that this faith space has arisen in the post 9 and let them climb as to paranoid about terrorism. And of course, that is some things that impact, so im listening most of them. And i think what well check is done, unfortunately, is tights and some of the west lies in the windows about muslims from the doctors corners of themes. Net and theyve read package that as reliable information. I think thats very concise. And a letter dated the 13th of june. 2019 preventative will check the legal representative said in response to the suggestion that will check targets mostly as well as quote, offensive unholy, unsubstantiated. There is no question of well checked, talking to any group and to suggest otherwise would be entirely inaccurate. Individuals entities to been identified by government as being fund or in the watch list. For example. Then this will be reported in, well check. Now mia should be be further questioned, how much time welsh ex, research on the list, covering 240 countries in territories around the world would have available to collect information when i spoke to various well check list cards and full amount and the organization, i was astonished alone that the standards for the creation of profiles were very low. Let me give you an example. One profile review or i spoke to said that they reviews 3 to 600 profiles every single day. Now and only 10 to 12 hour day shift. That means youre spending less than 2 minutes reviewing the profile. Its no wonder that youre unable to track the underlying source information, all the allegations against that person or organization. You dont have the time to resend it to his lawyer is responded by saying that these allegations, what quote simply wrong shape and no resemblance to the amount of time spent by well check analyst creating and reviewing records. And the allegations demonstrate to fundamental lack of understanding of the operation of the data base. Mischaracterized has to well Check Research and Quality Assurance processes. In summary, considerable k. Its taken by a client and ensuring the accuracy of its reports. It is impossible to create records in well check in 2 minutes. An old on the list, research is supplemented by but q a checks and use of technology to ensure a High Accuracy standards on and change across the world. All sorts of news, media report stories, some of them do so robustly as a guide to the care and attention and others may be less. If a story is cover that side by voices or a Pay Associated reprice or other type with these organizations or New York Times of washington, place of the times with use of whatever you can reasonably accept the taken care of, of the factual content within that story. If its on some of these wordpress books, it, you have to be more cautious about it. So in fact, uh, expected to apply just to those 2 things. So the principle subscribers to data base is like vicinity. If well check dow jones and lexis nexis. But the overall market for that services is now much bigger. And i found that i have a 300. 00 Law Enforcement and intelligence agencies across the world we use. And this of us, i lost a number of the british going full sort agencies, including metropolitan police, comsearch on command, the National Crime agency. Im a city of mountain police, an old confirm to me that they have i to subscriptions to well check. You also have various mortgage providers using that service visa screening services. You have the you guys charge the commission screening potential beneficiary charges against the state device and also the department for international development. One of the key Services FinancialRisk Assessment data base is alpha is what they call sanction screening. All you sanction, and that means is there anywhere in the world that prevents the bank from doing business with you because there was a, a central, youre paying like off they are involved in terrorism. That could, you could be from my country, which is functions like your home, um, offer businesses sanctions and us to buy, you know, for both terrace activity and politically sanctions as well. There are all kinds of countries as that. And organizations who, for reasons of that for the describe that folks organizations, theyve done life as towers. So for example, the united, our everetts has a habits of describing organizations connected to the most Muslim Brotherhood. All those extinct is connected to most in brotherhood as service women, not that either types of peaceful organizations. And so they classified as toes and so on and side. These are regular, i believe, does the same as that one. We embrace them, which the claims to be a decent fact country should not tolerate. Tom, i wanted to look into peter owns points in more detail and did a search for sanctions issued specifically by arrow countries. He found that in 2014, the analogy that are of them are said issued a list of sanctions against over 80 islamic movements and organizations around the world. One of the groups listed on will check in the countering terrorism funding category is the federation of islamic organizations in europe. All the s i o e in brussels. Its made up of 27 separate islamic organizations in different european countries. Town. I noticed that this listing was made by will check immediately of to the s i o e was included on the use list of sanctions groups published in 2014. He asked the president to the f i o e. About the connection between the u. I. E list on his organizations, inclusion on the well check data base on what take me a quote on what most of the work you have gotten method you might want to have them all read. My nephew was there at the have to have the most of the time that you would check why they then why mean . Well, how do you know of worship when i, what else and ed, and well check you out. The new uh yeah, within my father the shut the whole bank, my them as that the most of them have shut the well of a and miss when i the, and the, the when bass, my head, the items that i, that thats the, it wouldnt be heavy and then probably mad, well, most of the home is that so the yet the how is it yet, the engineer and most of that when one of the month and when that is your doctor and it had let it also. And how soon are you the jimmy, what i look i meant to have the check then no it have. Yeah. And then well take, ill just put name is timothy timothy, have a daddy cuz human was the system of if you have them call email, claimants name of fat and the you know, the thief and those leaves and they wont take colby, im based, copy and paste but do financial risk data bases, taking enough responsibility for the information they provide to the clients. It is important to note expect, well check is designed to a lot to use as to possible risk to situations with further scrutiny may be appropriate. This does not mean that subjects included in well, checked, necessarily test risk. The point they need to understand is there any Bank Compliance officer using a commercially available database, takes all the information with a grain of salt. He needs to look at the references at the bottom and see where did the information come from. The end of the day a Compliance Officer is going to look at the entire background of an individual not just rely upon a a sanctions list or, or negative information which appeared out of a non democratic country. The pothole said, or no, the we or no, these are not the more no the mission show us call to make real if youll do on that sheet of who she who as this is erica, this is douglas. See who they said to give us a good the very few minutes of how much will middle should you know, it says up on my so as far as up does that for myself .

So still good the, do you just say they shut that off . Theyre supposed to have a personal Service Ticket to know the stillness most of the week is that almost youll get for the the web. Uh, the provide is of this information with entity boundary than others. All in the y a, a culture of a similar situation that some of the social media companies, they are a platform provide. They are an aggregation with other peoples use. And that means they have to include waivers to say that while they take care of that, what the end of the night device, they are not responsible for the content that they are actually getting to me or they are merely aggregate to you. Im presenting it to the things to make their own judgments on so they have to be careful to assess the human impacts. This kind of have time i had so far relied on the 2014 well checked database that chris victory had found. But eventually he was able to view will checks 2019 database with the help of the world checking side to to agree to help on condition that he remain anonymous. The found businessmen, politicians, journalist activists and opposition leaders in different arab and islamic countries on the 2019 database.

Let me at the hop on to get in and pass along the some i can was give me some of the trustees to whom when that must be something hot. What do you mean by the visual . Not to jenny of wisdom. I wish we should stand off against the specifications. We shouldnt allow Foreign Countries to use that the power of the state to the flat. Its political opponents terrace. I mean, i love them to be punished in this country too because they like somebody that go to buy it kind of as a result of the cost of classification by a foreign country. So i really think its a terrible problem. I think it needs to be taken up politically share to prevent it. This sort of a, how is very severe iris of it as a table is the effect of these classifications representative will check, had declined, ill just say are, are a big sofa to appear in an interview on when given the further opportunity, biologist era in 2020 they again declined. However, in april 2020, the legal representatives did issue this long statement. It said that, well, chuck is one of many sources used by banks and other businesses to help them meet the regulatory requirements and identified potential financial and related crimes, such as Money Laundering and the financing of terrorism. It went on to highlight how big a problem Money Laundering is between 2 and 5 percent of global g d p. And that will check is not secret. Neither is it a blacksmith nor a Law Enforcement function. It provides information on individuals and organizations collected from reliable and reputable Information Available in the Public Domain. And it does not prepare reports on individuals independent of this public information. It said, well, check is governed by the 2018 british Data Protection act.

K. Data protection agency. The Information Commission is office and it said its applies objective criteria when including information in the Public Domain, political judgement, clothes are not made. Entities inaccurate, just suggest that well check assist. Any government in their agenda is a continued that it does not offer opinions and to that terms and conditions require our customers to conduct that own investigations when using information in well to check. The statement ended by saying that anyone can request copies of data held about them and ask for it to be updated or corrected. So is there an argument that financial Risk Assessment databases should be directly regulated rather than simply by association with the Banking System as a whole. The databases themselves are not regulated at the moment losely because of the consumption of those data bases is from the folks who are themselves regulated in this type of a. I mean there is plenty to slice the out of it should be regulated possibly. And to ensure that they apply robust controls, but that would come with the cost and then that would be reflected into the charges that i apply to the banks. And that would then be reflected into the challenges i applied to you may, it is really important that these funds existence of what they do because the banks would struggle to avoid new clients without it. And therefore, they do need to be able to make a commercial return on that very significant investment. Data protection is another key element to this debate.

This from my experience and i have to have worked inside institutions interact with the is this, they are pretty responsive and have good mechanisms for letting them know what the information that they carry is around. It is not perfect. The existence of financial risk databases raises several questions that should concern, as or is it legitimate and say, for a private company to collect data, which although its in the Public Domain, comes from sources that may very well have the political agendas. Is it reasonable for that data then to be made available to subscribe . Its unbeknown to the individuals and organizations concerns .
