A.6 Dow Jones Watch List

Dow Jones provides a subscription-based service offering a consolidated list of PEPs (Politically Exposed Persons) and entities and individuals appearing on the various sanctions lists. For more information, see the Dow Jones website.

The Dow Jones watch list automated download task uses one of two script files that are provided with Oracle Transaction Filtering to provide further configuration of the download process. These script files are:

  • download-djw.sh (for use on Unix platforms)
  • download-djw.bat (for use on Windows platforms)
The script files are invoked by the automated task and will download the data files and copy them to the appropriate sub-folder of the OEDQ landing area.

Note:

In Watchlist Management Project under Reference Data, the “DJW List Provider Static”, contains the entire Dow Jones List Providers. It contains the score and the flag irrespective whether it belongs to Sanctions List or not. User has the privilege to change the flag and score based on their preference.
