The problem

Traditional risk scoring creates blind spots

When scoring is manual or opaque, teams slow down approvals and still miss the riskiest cases

The Workflow

How Detelio risk scoring works

01

Collect verified KYB data

Pull business registry details, UBO ownership, geography, and watchlist signals into one case.

02

Apply policy-based scoring

Use configurable factors and weights aligned with your internal risk appetite.

03

Generate an explainable score

See the exact drivers behind the score, with factor-level breakdowns and rationale.

04

Trigger the right workflow

Auto-approve low risk, route medium to EDD, and escalate high risk for review.

Building the score

What goes into the score

Configurable factors and weights aligned to your policy, risk appetite, and KYB requirements.

Plus industry, adverse media, and historical decisions.

Risk score 72 medium risk with top factors geography, ownership, watchlist proximity, and industry activity.

Policy driven scoring

Adjust weights, thresholds, and routing rules for different segments and markets.

Ownership & UBO structure

Complex chains and missing UBO signals increase risk.

Sanctions & watchlists

Entity screening and related-party signals, routed by policy.

Entity screening shows 2 total matches including 1 PEP match and 1 sanction match with alerts.

Geography & jurisdiction

Country risk, operating regions, and cross-border exposure.

Questions buyers actually ask

The risk scoring FAQ

Real questions from compliance teams evaluating Detelio. If something's missing, ask us in the demo — we'd rather over-share.

Can we tune weights and thresholds by segment?

Expand section details

Yes. Define segment-specific weights, thresholds, and routing rules, then version the policy so every decision is traceable to the policy that produced it.

What data sources can we use in the score?

Expand section details

Bring your own: registries, internal CRM data, watchlist screening results, adverse media, documents, and historical decisions. Connect via API and webhooks, or start with a CSV import for pilots.

How do you handle false positives and near-matches?

Expand section details

Near-matches are treated as signals, not automatic guilt. Route ambiguous cases to review, capture reviewer reason codes, and use allowlists/exceptions where appropriate so the system improves over time.

Who can change scoring logic, and how is it controlled?

Expand section details

Use role-based access: only approved admins can change weights or thresholds. Changes are logged and can be gated by review/approval depending on your process.

Can compliance override an automated decision?

Expand section details

Yes. Reviewers can override with a required reason and notes, and the final outcome is recorded with the full audit trail.

What do we need to go live?

Expand section details

A policy baseline (factors + thresholds), your preferred data sources, and one integration point (API/webhook) to send outcomes back to your workflow. Then expand coverage and automation step-by-step.
