About ScreenShield

ScreenShield, built by Mulanji Technologies, is an Abuja-based AML/CFT sanctions screening and compliance platform for African financial institutions. Its customers include fintechs, microfinance banks, payment service providers and remittance operators in Nigeria, Ghana, the DRC, Cameroon and Senegal.

Every transaction is screened in real time against lists including OFAC, the UN Security Council, EU financial sanctions, Nigeria's NFIU designations and politically exposed persons, plus sanctioned crypto wallets across 18 chains, with lists updated nightly. The company reports a 650ms API response time and says it is live in production. It positions itself as an affordable, Africa-native alternative to expensive global screening tools.
