LSEG Launches World-Check On Demand – a New Era of Real-Time Risk Intelligence

• World-Check On Demand redefines the way risk intelligence data is created and delivered, offering real-time access to trusted sanctions, PEPs, adverse media, and enforcement actions data
• 98% of financial institutions consider real-time data “important to their compliance workflows” according to new survey
• LSEG is also celebrating the 25th anniversary of World-Check

LSEG Risk Intelligence, a leader in compliance, risk management and fraud prevention solutions, has announced the launch of World-Check On Demand. The new platform will transform the way data is created and delivered, meeting customer demand for timely, trusted, and actionable intelligence to help manage their risk; reduce over screening; and process payments faster.

Through an API, World-Check On Demand delivers precise, continuously updated real-time risk intelligence – ensuring organisations have instant access to accurate and relevant data across sanctions, PEPs, adverse media, and enforcement actions.

David Wilson, Group Head of LSEG Risk Intelligence, said: “Navigating a new era of risk and compliance requires more than just data — it demands intelligence that’s real-time, accurate, and most importantly, trusted. With World-Check On Demand we are delivering just that — enabling our clients to act faster, smarter and with confidence, while reducing operational cost.”

The launch comes as LSEG publishes the findings from a new global study “Operating at the Speed of Crime: The Case for Real-Time Risk Intelligence”:

• 98% of financial institutions see real-time data as “important” to their compliance workflows
• 80% report frequent onboarding or payment delays due to outdated or slow screening
• 75% cite excessive false positives as a persistent challenge

World-Check’s trusted AI-enabled data helps compliance teams to detect risk early, improve response times, reduce false positives, and streamline operations — all while maintaining data transparency and provenance.

World-Check On Demand provides the data layer that powers faster, more accurate decision-making, supporting frictionless onboarding and helping reduce the compliance bottlenecks mentioned on the survey. Delivered via flexible APIs, it can be seamlessly integrated into existing technology stacks — from onboarding platforms to real-time transaction monitoring systems — giving institutions the confidence to act fast and with confidence.
