RDS has expanded its service offerings to include an automated solution that assists ASP customers with meeting the government-mandated requirements for Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) compliance reporting. Through a partnership agreement signed by RDS and ATTUS Technologies, RDS said it is able to securely scan the membership bases of ASP clients against the OFAC list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons and FinCEN Section 314(a) requests. ATTUS' OFAC WatchDOG and GuardDOG compliance software packages were installed and tested at the RDS service center in support of full service implementation on Sept. 30.
