The Pascal tool provides a structured and traceable approach to sanctions screening, enabling:

Comprehensive and ongoing coverage of applicable sanctions and enforcement lists, PEP lists and of adverse media (incl automated translation).

What do you like best about Pascal?

The Pascal Screening is intuitive, provides a cautious approach to screening with the ability to quickly and accurately review possible results. And the integration with Hubspot CRM makes for a powerful and efficient business tool to drive 1st line compliance and 2nd line review of compliance. The reports are detailed and neatly presented. The monitoring function adds the dimension of constant risk management. I was fortunate to trial run with the Onboarding module and similarly was a powerful and intuitive tool, linking up with the ability to Screen individuals and organisations from the Onboarding forms, which you can fully modify to your business requirements.

What do you like best about Pascal?

Pascal makes KYC easy, and is effective in identifying adverse hits. the interface is very clean and easy to navigate. You can set up e-mail updates for fresh hits at a desirable frequency.

the best part of Pascal is probably the amazing team behind it, who are always happy to engage in discussions about how to utilise it efficiently, and who take the time to consider and often implement any suggestions users have. During our time using Pascal we have seen the platform evolve, often in direct response to our feedback. Every update makes Pascal better and better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pascal?

There are a lot of false positive hits, and sometimes it feels like the system is stretching a bit to look for hits matching names, often showing hits with little or no relevance. Thankfully sifting through the hits is a swift task thanks to the filter system, but I'm sure this is something the Pascal developers will improve in future updates. A way to specify terms that are usually related to false hits would be useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
