Real-Time News & Adverse Media Data for Fintech

Real-time global news data for fintech platforms

A single normalised feed covering 250k+ sources in 150+ languages. So you can onboard customers faster, screen for adverse media automatically, and personalise user experiences without building your own news infrastructure.

Incomplete News Coverage Means
Slower Decisions & Higher Risk

Manual news screening slows customer onboarding, fragmented data sources create compliance blind spots, and late-breaking news means you’re always reacting instead of proactively managing risk.

  • Customer onboarding is delayed 3-5 days while compliance teams manually search for adverse media across multiple sources.
  • Compliance blind spots in emerging markets where your current provider has limited local coverage.
  • Alert fatigue from duplicate articles forces your team to waste time filtering noise instead of assessing real risk.
  • Missed reputational risks that surface in non-English media before appearing in major outlets.

One Feed. One API. Global Coverage.

A single, normalised feed containing 240k+ sources, and metadata enrichments, including entity tagging (LEIs, FIGIs, PermIDs), built to enhance signals for the capital markets. 

One Integration. Complete Global Coverage.
Built for Fintech Scale.

A single, normalised feed with 250k+ sources and built-in entity tagging (LEIs, FIGIs, PermIDs). Integrate once, then build features without juggling multiple data vendors.

  • Ship features faster: Pre-built entity tagging and deduplication mean no data cleaning. Your engineers build product features, not data pipelines.
  • Never miss regional risk: 250k+ sources across 150+ languages catch adverse media from local outlets before it hits mainstream news.
  • Build reliable alerts: 5-7 minute ingestion latency means your customers get real-time notifications, not stale data.
  • Automate compliance screening: 1,200+ topic codes, including sanctions, fraud, and PEP coverage categorise articles automatically, no manual tagging.
  • Scale globally without friction: Versioned schemas and consistent formatting work across all markets, so expanding to new regions doesn’t require re-engineering.

From API Key to Production in 4 Steps

RESTful API, webhooks, or S3 delivery. Whatever fits your stack. Integrate once, then use the same feed across KYC, monitoring, alerts, and analytics.

Step 1: Define Your Coverage

Select your regions, languages, and content categories (adverse media, sanctions, ESG, sector news). We’ll configure your feed to deliver only what matters to your use case.

Step 2: Choose Your Delivery Method

RESTful API for real-time queries, webhooks for instant notifications, or S3/SFTP for batch processing. Works with your existing infrastructure—no re-architecting required.

Step 3: Enable Entity Enrichment

Turn on LEI, FIGI, or PermID linking to automatically match articles to companies and instruments in your system. No manual entity resolution needed.

Step 4: Go Live & Scale

Set up routing rules for your workflows (onboarding, monitoring, alerts) and start receiving structured news data. Add new use cases anytime without re-integration.

Your Questions, Answered

Most teams are live in production within 2-5 days. Our API, webhook, and S3/SFTP delivery options work with your existing infrastructure—no rearchitecting required. We provide versioned schemas, comprehensive documentation, and technical support throughout integration. You can test with sample data immediately, validate in staging, then scale to production on your timeline.

Free APIs typically cover 5,000-20,000 sources, mostly English-language mainstream media. Opoint delivers 250,000+ sources across 150 languages, including local outlets where adverse media often surfaces first. We provide deduplication (eliminating 70%+ noise), entity resolution (LEI/FIGI/PermID matching), and 1,200+ topic codes—so your team doesn’t waste time on manual categorisation or filtering duplicate articles. Unlike aggregators, we maintain direct source relationships and can deliver news within 5-7 minutes of publication. 

Coverage combines local outlets, trade media, and global publishers across 150+ languages. Streams are deduplicated, normalised, and timestamped with transparent lineage to support auditability. Source curation, language detection, and relevance scoring reduce noise so product teams can build reliable features, without stitching together multiple feeds or maintaining their own crawlers.
