Excluding irrelevant associates from risk scoring in the Identify officers and Identify authorized persons tasks

You can now ensure that associate roles in the Identify officers and Identify authorized persons tasks no longer contribute to the company’s risk score.

Removing an associate's role from the company profile automatically cancels or rejects the product application for that role and severs the role’s relationship to the parent company, ensuring it isn't factored into the company’s risk score.

Associates with all roles removed from the company profile don’t appear in the Removed tab, but you can still access their profiles and applications by selecting the associate’s name in the company profile's audit report item that's generated when a role is removed.

How it works

  • On the task’s verification list, select the bin icon next to the associate you want to remove. A dropdown appears where you can choose to remove the associate’s role from the company profile.
  • You can provide an optional reason for the removal of the role which is then visible in the audit trail. Select Remove to complete the removal of the associate role from the company profile.

Removing associates from the Authorized Persons task.

Removing from the verification list vs. removing from the company profile

  • Removing from the verification list indicates that the associate role no longer needs verification and approval, moving the role’s product application to canceled or rejected. However, the removed role still contributes to the company’s risk score.
  • Removing from the company profile severs the associate role's relationship to the parent company, ensuring it isn't factored into the company's risk score. This also moves the role’s product application to canceled or rejected.

Important information

If you remove an associate role from the company’s profile in the Identify officers task, but that associate still holds a role in any other task, for example the Assess company ownership task, that role might still contribute to the company’s risk score if that’s how your risk policy is set up.

Improvements to Orbis company search

We’ve made changes to our Orbis company search to help you quickly identify the correct legal entity when creating new company profiles.


What’s changed

  • We’ve removed the requirement for country of incorporation to initiate a search.
  • We’re now offering more information about companies in the search results list to help you find relevant companies. For example, the number of employees, location, and industry.
  • You can now filter a list of results by location, legal status, organizational type (HQ, GUO), and industry to narrow down your search.
  • You can now search by trade names and previous names.

How it works

  • The new search experience is immediately available to customers who have configured Moody’s Orbis as their default search provider.
  • Customers using country configurations to combine Orbis with another provider for search will not have access to the new search experience.
  • The new search is not yet available for associate profile creation, we will be releasing this in due course.
  • See the following topics for further information:
    • Add a company profile 
    • About company search auto-complete

If you have any questions, visit our help site or get in touch with our Client Service team.

Automatic task completion when no associates are returned

You now have the option to automatically complete the Assess company ownership and Identify officers tasks when no associates are returned from the data provider and there are no associates present in the verification list.

The new option can be selected in addition to the verification list criteria for automatic task completion. This means you can configure tasks to automatically complete in either scenario: 1. When associates are returned and require verification; and 2. When no associates are returned from the data provider.

Automatic task completion when no associates are returned only happens when a company data check has passed. The task doesn’t complete automatically if the check returns a partial, fail, or error result.

How selecting this option impacts new task versions

  • If the most recent passed check in a new task version doesn’t find an associate and there are no associates in the verification list, the new task version automatically completes.
  • If the most recent passed check in a new task version finds an associate or if there are associates in the verification list, the new task version doesn’t automatically complete.

Additional information

Refer to our help site to learn more about automatic task completion. To set this up, contact your implementation specialist.

New Forced labor risk assessment check is now available

Maxsight customers can now benefit from the new Forced labor risk assessment check that helps detect forced labor risks within third-party networks.

The check measures the risk of severe forms of labor exploitation, including forced labor, modern slavery, and human trafficking. It also measures the degree to which an organization may have a severe lack of resilience and capability to respond to these exploitation risks.

How it works

The Forced labor risk assessment makes use of Moody’s forced labor risk database as its data provider. 

The data provider uses the company custom check template.

Users must send a survey to their suppliers to be filled out. Data from the survey is then used to generate scores. A Forced labor risk score is provided along with a score for each component. The components are Business, Industry, and Country. Each component score is broken down into different risk category scores, which can each be further broken down into metric scores.

Details of the survey, including when it was sent, viewed, or submitted are provided as well as the data completeness level of the survey. Data completeness refers to the level of information available from the supplier survey when the check last ran compared to the information that was requested.

Country and industry reference scores are also provided. They indicate an organization's baseline risk score for country and industry.

Recommendations linked to each metric are presented. These recommendations offer guidance on how to mitigate risk in that area. 

Thresholds for the Business, Industry, and Country component scores can be configured in the data provider settings, causing the check to pass or fail based on the returned results.

Overview page for company profiles

Maxsight customers can now view the newly designed Overview page for company profiles. The new Overview page summarizes the data and risk insights commonly accessed by users on the Profile management tab.

How to access the page

When you are viewing a company’s profile page, a banner appears at the top alerting you to the new Overview page. Choose the Go to the new Overview page link or disregard the message and continue viewing the current profile data.

If you selected the Go to the new Overview page link, the new Overview page opens and the logic for when this page is displayed is updated. Previously, when a profile name was clicked, you were brought to the Application overview tab, but opting to view the new Overview page changes the logic to display the new Overview page as the default.  


What is included on the new Overview page?

The snapshot provided by the Overview page contains widgets that summarize identifying data, application status, and key risk drivers for a single entity. This snapshot unifies available datasets into one view, so that the user can review entity data and risk information all from this page. 

We have prioritized the following data for this Overview page release:

  • Profile information (including up to 9 custom fields)
  • Application risk scores 
  • Application tasks
  • Ownership information
  • Financials, when the Assess financials task is added
  • Recent activity

Monitoring visualisation: the ability to see what’s changed in Orbis data

We’ve made it easier to see what changed when Moody’s Orbis monitoring updates one of your company profiles. This improvement helps you quickly take action on company data tasks that are placed back in review by our monitoring system.

Background

When using the Moody’s Orbis integration with monitoring, company profiles are placed back into the Review status when there are certain updates to the Orbis data. All of the company data tasks are expired and new versions of the tasks are created. These profiles may require manual completion and will appear in the list of profiles needing attention.

Read more about monitoring on our help site.

Customers told us that finding out which data points caused a profile to be placed back into review was difficult and time-consuming.

What’s changed

When you open a task that needs manual intervention, you’ll see a banner indicating a monitoring update.

You can use the view updates button to see the last ten updates to the monitored task, including information about which data points changed and the old and new values.

If you open one of the expired tasks, you will see a banner inviting you to view the newer version of the task.

Get started

This update will be available to all users of the latest Moody’s Orbis integration upon release. You will see it in the portal soon. If you have any questions, visit our help site or get in touch with our Client Service team.

Use provider data to calculate risk

You can now directly use data returned by data providers to automatically populate custom fields used as risk factors, reducing the need for manual input and ensuring that risk scores are calculated automatically.

Key Benefits

  • Automatic data population: Custom fields are automatically populated with data from your data provider and used in risk scoring.
  • Efficiency: Get a faster, fully calculated risk score without missing data.
  • Data source identification: Easily identify fields populated by provider data, which are marked as Automatically entered.

How it works

  • Get in touch with your implementation specialist who will create and configure a new custom field that can be auto-populated with data returned by your data provider.
  • When the check runs, the data specified in the custom field configuration will auto populate the custom field.
  • In the risk page, you’ll be able to see the source of where the data came from for a specified custom field, whether it was entered manually or automatically.
  • When there is new data available, for example when the entity is being monitored, the fields are automatically updated with the latest data.
  • You can manually edit custom fields. However, note that once a field is manually overwritten, it will not auto-populate with new provider data, even if updates are received.

Getting started

  • Get in touch with your implementation specialist to get this up and running.

Excluding irrelevant associates from risk scoring

You can now ensure that associate roles in the Assess company ownership task no longer contribute to the company’s risk score.

Removing an associate's role from the company profile automatically cancels or rejects the product application for that role and severs the role’s relationship to the parent company, ensuring it isn't factored into the company’s risk score.

Associates with all roles removed from the company’s profile in the Assess company ownership task don’t appear in the Removed tab, but you can still access their profiles and applications by selecting the associate’s name in the company profile's audit report item that's generated when a role is removed.

How it works

  • You now have an edit associate view in the Assess company ownership task where you can remove a role from the company profile (new) or remove a role from the verification list (existing).
  • In the edit view, you can see the roles that have been removed from the verification list but still contribute to risk score. From here you can add them back to the verification list or remove them from the company profile.

  • Removing from the verification list indicates that the associate role no longer needs verification and approval, moving the role’s product application to canceled or rejected. However, the removed role still contributes to the company’s risk score.
  • Removing from the company profile severs the associate role's relationship to the parent company, ensuring it isn't factored into the company's risk score. This also moves the role’s product application to canceled or rejected.

Important information

If you remove an associate role from the company’s profile in the Assess company ownership task, but that associate still holds a role in any other task, for example the Officers task, that role might still contribute to the company’s risk score if that’s how your risk policy is set up.

Out of scope

  • Being able to remove roles from the company profile in other associate tasks.
