A rhinoceros runs fast and sees poorly, but its weight makes it a problem for anything in its path. Banks and partners don’t listen to you; they evaluate a person based on their digital profile. Services such as World-Check or Lexis Nexis are the sources of this data. These platforms were created to check counterparties for involvement in illegal financial activities. However, in reality, they contain information on millions of people. These services are often associated with scandals and data leaks, unjust categorization of individuals as suspicious, and the inclusion of data from irrelevant sources, yet they continue to be widely used. Do not leave this issue unattended. Request information about yourself regularly, at least every six months. You don't need to have done something wrong; it's enough for the World-Check algorithm to flag you as suspicious, or for someone in your contacts to be linked to questionable transactions. There's also the risk of database errors or incorrect interpretations. World-Check is a black box that significantly impacts your capital and assets, potentially leading to loan refusals, blocked transactions, denied bank accounts, and even revocation of residence permits or citizenship. Bank compliance departments work solely with documents and digital traces, so if you face unexplained refusals or biased treatment, World-Check could be the reason.
