  • Patent number: 9063985
    Abstract: Some embodiments include a system, method, apparatus and means for determining that first information in an input data packet is not redundant with second information previously stored in a database system, includes receiving the input data packet, generating a database query based on one or more tagged portions in the input data packet, comparing second information retrieved by the database query with the first information to identify at least a first portion of the first information that is different than the second information, and causing storage of the at least a first portion of the first information in the database system.

  • Publication number: 20140344130
    Abstract: Some embodiments include a system, method, apparatus and means for automated political risk management. According to some embodiments, a computer-implemented method to facilitate management of risk related to political exposure associated with a financial transaction may include receiving financial transaction data associated with the transaction, determining that a participant is a politically identified person, calculating a first category political risk score based on the financial transaction data, calculating a second category political risk score based on the financial transaction data, calculating an overall transaction political risk quotient associated with the financial transaction based on the first and the second category politically risk scores, and generating a suggested action for the financial transaction based on the overall transaction political risk quotient.

  • Patent number: 8762191
    Abstract: An amount of risk associated with a transaction may be determined by transforming collected information into a searchable database where the collected information may be assessed for relevancy and redundancy, parsed into categories of relevancy based on at least one risk, stored in a database, and outputted into a graphical user interface. Information may also be collected from a plurality of sources, translated into at least one standardized format, parsed into a plurality of portions, assessed based on a risk-relevancy metric, tagged based on the risk-relevancy metric, filtered based on redundancy, stored within the data structure, and outputted into a data storage structure to a graphical user interface. Unstructured information may be obtained from a large variety of sources, which may allow users to make decisions—regarding, for example, transactions, relationships, or the like—from a risk perspective.
