Why does explainability matter in screening?

Because teams must justify releases and blocks internally and externally.

What is the difference between screening and supplier risk?

Screening is the control event; supplier risk is the wider context shaping review depth and follow-up.

As soon as multiple teams, exceptions, and escalations touch the same decision.

Treat screening, escalation, and explainability as explicit lanes inside your trade-compliance operating model.

Run intake, screening, and review through explicit lanes with visible exceptions.
Store context, rationale, and explainability per decision moment.
Bring supplier risk, signals, and release decisions back into the same dossier.
