With nearly 1,000 companies across 107 countries, RDC is the leading provider of customer screening solutions including sanctions, watchlists, politically exposed persons (PEPs) and adverse media. The foundation for this screening excellence is RDC’s Global Risk Intelligence Database (“GRID”) which contains more than 9 million curated risk profiles covering 60 types of crime, including human trafficking.
“Everyday, RDC employees around the world wake up with a common mission – to prevent criminal infiltration of the world’s financial system,” said Tom Walsh, CEO of RDC. “The more we learn about the horrors and costs of Human Trafficking from our customers and partners such as the Mekong Club, the more passionate we’ve become about halting this vile, inhumane business. So, on this Global Anti-Slavery Day, we are taking the unprecedented step of enabling RDC customers to screen for human trafficking crimes at no additional charge.”
Effective immediately, all current and future customers, regardless of the RDC solution they use, will be able to screen against RDC’s human trafficking content at no additional charge. For more information, customers should contact their sales representative or RDC at EndModernSlavery@RDC.com.
