Due diligence at the speed of deal-making

In M&A transactions, due diligence timelines compress while regulatory expectations expand. Legalica's KYC engine addresses both pressures simultaneously — automating the routine verification that consumes associate hours, while producing documentation that satisfies regulators in any jurisdiction.

The KYC workflow

  1. Entity Search — Enter a company name and Legalica queries 140+ registries (GLEIF, OpenCorporates, national company registers) in real time
  2. Sanctions Screening — Automatic check against 450+ watchlists with fuzzy matching and false-positive suppression
  3. PEP Identification — 4-tier classification with Relative and Close Associate mapping
  4. UBO Tracing — Recursive ownership chain mapping with percentage holdings and jurisdiction flags
  5. Adverse Media Scan — Real-time negative news monitoring across 75,000+ sources
  6. Risk Scoring — Composite 0-100 score with 6 weighted factors
  7. Report Generation — Court-admissible KYC report in 187+ languages with full attribution
