Threat actors operate
through corporate networks.
State-sponsored adversaries, terrorist organizations, and proliferators use layered corporate structures to access the financial system. Sayari maps the corporate infrastructure behind the threat — connecting financial intelligence to beneficial ownership.
Why financial intelligence alone misses the structure
The structural gaps that point solutions can’t close.
Corporate infrastructure opacity
Threat actors register dozens to hundreds of nominally independent companies to access financial rails, move value, and maintain operational security. Each entity appears legitimate when reviewed in isolation.
Jurisdictional arbitrage
Threat networks deliberately exploit jurisdictions with weak beneficial ownership disclosure, opaque corporate service providers, and limited law enforcement cooperation to create structures that defeat single-source analysis.
Speed-to-designation lag
By the time a network is identified and designated, its principals have already migrated to new corporate structures. Intelligence needs to be proactive and network-aware, not reactive and entity-specific.
Map the corporate infrastructure of threat networks.
Sayari integrates corporate registry data from 250+ jurisdictions with trade flow records and financial intelligence — enabling threat finance analysts to trace ownership networks, identify node dependencies, and map the full corporate infrastructure behind a threat actor.
Threat Network Mapping
Trace any designated or suspected entity across its full corporate network — subsidiaries, affiliates, co-registrants, and trade partners — across 250+ jurisdictions.
Beneficial Owner Identification
Traverse nominee structures, trust arrangements, and corporate service provider relationships to identify the natural persons controlling a threat network.
Financial Infrastructure Analysis
Map the corporate entities used to access financial rails — correspondent banks, payment processors, and shell companies — and their relationships to designated principals.
Network Prioritization
Identify the highest-leverage nodes in a threat network — the entities whose removal would most disrupt the network’s ability to move value or access controlled goods.
From data to decision
Start from any known actor or indicator
Begin with a designated entity, a financial alert, or a trade anomaly flagged by FinCEN, OFAC, or partner agencies.
Corporate network traversal
Sayari maps all corporate relationships — ownership chains, co-directors, co-shareholders, and trade partners — across 250+ jurisdictions.
Identify key nodes for designation or disruption
Prioritize entities by network centrality, financial access, and operational role for designation recommendations or interdiction planning.
Records integrated in Sayari’s world model
Sayari’s world model integrates corporate registry filings, trade flow records, beneficial ownership data, and enforcement intelligence into a single persistent entity graph — giving threat finance analysts the cross-domain view that adversary networks are specifically designed to prevent.
