Profiles is where analysts and compliance teams work through the individuals and organizations being screened, from onboarding through ongoing monitoring. Use it to:
  • Create or review profiles for customer onboarding.
  • Monitor ongoing changes across sanctions, PEP, and adverse media.
  • Investigate potential matches and record whether each one is a True Match or a False Match.
  • Process larger volumes with bulk actions.

​
Screening workflow

  1. Open Profiles to see the clients with active potential matches or red flags.
  2. Select a client profile to review all previous matches and monitoring activity tied to that person or organization.
  3. Open an individual potential match to inspect the supporting information you need to decide, including match details, risk indicators, and source coverage.
  4. Update the Profile Status based on your organization’s risk appetite and internal policy.
  5. Update the Match Status to resolve the match, such as True Match, False Match, Unresolved, or No Material Change.

What you see in profiles

The profiles table gives analysts a working queue for onboarding and ongoing monitoring: Mockup of the screening profiles queue showing clients with profile statuses and potential-match badges
  • Profiles with no issues remain visible for tracking and auditability.
  • Profiles with potential matches show the relevant red-flag categories directly in the table.
  • Monitoring state and last screened date make it easy to spot recent activity.
  • Profile status helps teams separate routine cases from escalations that need deeper review.

​
Previous matches

When you open a flagged profile, Minerva shows the full history of prior matches for that subject. Mockup of a flagged profile showing previous screening matches and prior outcomes
  • Review current and resolved matches in one place.
  • Compare repeated matches over time.
  • Use comments and activity history to understand what was decided previously.
  • Confirm whether a match is unchanged, newly escalated, or already resolved.

​
Match details

Selecting a potential match opens the detailed decision workspace. Mockup of the potential match decision workspace showing match data, risk score, and disposition controls
  • Compare alternate names, nationality, gender, occupation, and other identifiers.
  • Review the risk score and the contributing data sources.
  • See whether the match is driven by sanctions, PEP, adverse media, or a combination of sources.
  • Download a PDF report when you need to preserve findings for audit or escalation.
This screen gives you enough context for a defensible decision. An analyst should be able to explain why a match was marked a True Match or a False Match, and why a profile was escalated.

​
Disposition decisions

There are two related decisions in Profiles:
  • Profile Status reflects the overall customer or entity outcome, such as Potential match, In review, Escalation, Accepted, or Rejected.
  • Match Status resolves the specific match, such as True Match, False Match, Unresolved, or No Material Change.
The Screening Guide lists every selectable status and what each one means.
A useful training approach is to teach new users to make the match-level decision first, then confirm whether the broader profile status should also change.
