5.3 Treating Special and Accented Characters

The source and watchlist may have some names with special characters based on the geography.

For example: Nsĩã́, Dúkũ, Ɔkwán, Nyamékyε, Obím̀pέ.

Note:

The hyphen (-), dot (.), apostrophe ('), ampersand (&), tilde (~), comma (,), semicolon (;), parentheses (()) along with all accented characters are the special characters that are supported as part of the matching Engine. These characters are replaced by white spaces.

The system supports the following accented characters to ensure proper matching and processing of international names and terms:

a, á, b, c, č, d, ď, e, é, ě, f, g, h, ch, i, í, j, k, l, m, n, ň, o, ó, p, (q), r, ř, s, š, t, ť, u, ú, ů, v, (w), (x), y, ý, z, ž.
