Comprehensive Sanctions & PEP Screening for Scottish Landlords

At Scottish Landlords Tenant Referencing, we're committed to providing agents and landlords with the most thorough screening tools. Our Sanction and Politically Exposed Person (PEP) checks are now available as part of our comprehensive referencing packages or as standalone services to meet your specific needs.

What Are Sanction & PEP Checks?

Sanction Checks verify whether an individual appears on any government sanctions lists, identifying those who may be involved in illegal activities such as terrorism, money laundering, or other financial crimes.

PEP Checks (Politically Exposed Person) identify individuals who hold prominent public positions or have close associations with such individuals, who may present higher risks for potential involvement in bribery or corruption due to their position and influence.

Why conduct Sanction & PEP Checks?

Certain types of business are subject to reporting obligations as “relevant firms” under financial sanctions regulations. These reporting obligations are broadly the same across each of the financial sanctions regimes. From 14 May 2025, letting agents will be subject to these reporting obligations as they will be added to the list of “relevant firms” under financial sanctions regulations.
