# PEP and Sanction List ### How does ORBA One work with the Sanction and PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) Scans? ORBA One does not maintain these lists instead, we connect with partners such as World Check through their APIs. These lists are updated daily, therefore you have access to the most current lists once we provide your API. ### What data is the PEP Scan matching against? The PEP (Politically Exposed Person) Scan matches against a users' name and date of birth. After doing the scan, we return a match list and a match rate. A lower match rate means that multiple results have been returned. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
