## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability macaroon-network-sanctions-pep-screening-6cdef52d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you screen the name 'Aleksandr Petrov' against all major international sanctions lists — OFAC, EU, UK, UN — and also check if he shows up as a politically exposed person? Use fuzzy matching so close name variations are caught too.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a single-call multi-list sanctions and PEP screening with fuzzy name matching — especially when exact-match screening alone is insufficient for compliance purposes, or when you need to check across OFAC, EU, UK OFSI, UN, and PEP data simultaneously rather than querying each source separately. Ideal for KYC/AML onboarding workflows, due diligence automation, and compliance pipelines where catching name spelling variants matters.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or malformed name input returns validation error
- Network timeout if upstream sanctions data sources are temporarily unreachable
- Ambiguous very short names (e.g. single letter) may return noisy false-positive matches
- Payment failure via x402 protocol returns 402 response before screening is performed
- Rate limiting if called at very high frequency without appropriate pacing

## How this service works

Screen a name in one call against US OFAC SDN, the EU Consolidated Financial Sanctions List, UK OFSI, the UN Security Council Consolidated List, and Wikidata-derived Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) data -- with fuzzy name matching, not exact-only. Real competitor research (2026-09-11) found this exact bundle+fuzzy-match shape is what actually converts in this niche; the single-source exact-match ofac-sanctions-search-v1 listing did not.

## Output

Returns a structured screening result indicating whether the queried name matched records on the OFAC SDN list, EU Consolidated Financial Sanctions List, UK OFSI list, UN Security Council Consolidated List, or Wikidata-derived PEP data, with fuzzy match scores and source labels identifying which list(s) produced hits.
