What are the risk scores threshold for Adverse Media?

Overview

Adverse Media surfaces a business's overall risk by aggregating the risk level and category of each name searched. The risk level is determined by the highest-risk media source found, so a business with one or more high-risk sources will receive an overall high-risk score.

The levels for risk thresholds are defined as:

• Low Risk = <33%
• Moderate Risk = 33 - 66%
• High Risk = >66%
