@jafo You are saying if World Check doesn't have information that means it's a sealed indictment?
Worldcheck only really works if one is using their details in the West - if the person doesn't reside in the West then chances are their information doesn't leak to western data sets such as this as I understand -

Thomson Reuters buys information from everybody, even illegally obtained information. There is so much BS on Thomson Reuters it's mind-boggling.
Now, imagine on TR where there is NO "resistance" or counterparty. 😳
Sealed indictments do NOT get on TR...until AFTER they're unsealed...meaning the perp is arrested or the indictment is dismissed by the gov. This latter usually happens when the defendant outlives his "accusers" (read snitches).
Of course, if TR wants to get into certain countries and a perp is politically privileged/influential, TR will NOT display their info and later claim it can't be corroborated if or when they are confronted.
One of the numerous "exceptions": JPMorgan fined for hiring kids of China's elite to win business.
Note: Many investigators have access to TR and can get stuff on the record by discussing it off the record. If they can't get you and have NO "witnesses," they can let TR know that there is an "ongoing criminal investigation."... You can imagine what will happen then to such a business life. stupi#21
Perhaps, but not convinced this would impact TR REF data.
As they'd have basic information on a person or wouldn't.
Having information on a person they are interested in for criminal/civil matters wouldn't have be divulged.
They'd just provide the basic information they have on the user, much like how the banking system currently operates.
Thank you was what I was looking for.

That's a check to see if a person is sanctioned or a PEP. World Check goes far deeper than that, checking for adverse media, disqualified directorships, and much more.

This is the probably the answer to your question.
Is there by chance someone that has a sample how such a report would look like in it's fullest ?

Don't think anyone would share a World Check report publicly, but you can get a sense for it with some public sales materials.

You input a search, which can contain name, date of birth, address, and other details. World Check then checks that data against PEP data, sanctions lists, and any other lists they have access to, such as criminal records, court records, disqualified directorships, regulatory warnings/notices, and adverse media (articles about/mentioning the person). Searches can be for people, companies, and vessels (yachts, airplanes).
World Check uses fuzzy matches so that it can figure out that John matches Johnathan, Jonathan, John, Jon. You can configure the fuzziness yourself. It can also transliterate most major alphabets and translate languages, so that Andreas, ΑνδÏÎας, ΑντÏÎας, ÐндреаÑ, and أندرياس (and variations thereof) match. The same kind of fuzziness is used for dates of birth, company names, addresses, et cetera. It's not perfect and if you configure it too fuzzy, you get a lot of unrelated hits. That's one of the hardest and most tedious tasks in compliance departments.
