We have several vendors that we use for OFAC screening (onboarding, wires, IAT, regular database screening, branch, etc). Audit has now come to us to suggest that our newest OFAC vendor is considered a "model". I can't claim expertise in what is and what isn't considered a model, but know that our own internal folks in Compliance and Audit have argued over this same topic over the years. This new vendor uses exact match on name plus attributes such as address, DOB to identify potential matches and allows us to configure the confidence of the match. Our other vendors take a similar approach. Do any of you consider your OFAC screening tools to be a "model"?
