@BrightQuery @senzing 🕸️ It provides a more complete view of the US business ecosystem & the complex relationships within it.

@TimothyDSnyder If you want to do something today, Come Back Alive (savelife.in.ua/en/) remains one of the most effective ways to support Ukraine, funding equipment for soldiers on the battlefield and care for veterans. Слава Україні! 🇺🇦 (3/3)

On this day, historian @TimothyDSnyder reminds us not to let the numbers do the thinking for us: "A number cannot end a war. An anniversary is an abstraction that separates us from responsibility..." (2/3) snyder.substack.com/p/life-and-dea…

Four years since #Russia launched its full-scale invasion of #Ukraine. Four years of war crimes, forced displacement, and cities reduced to rubble. Four years of Ukrainians defending not just their country, but the principle that borders cannot be redrawn by force. (1/3)

Open data only works if it’s interconnected. That’s why we launched GODIN: a global framework linking identifiers to the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI). See how openness drives trust →

@GLandsbergis Dear Landsbergis social media team! Could you perhaps let us know if there is a central data source for these travel bans published by the LT gov? Many thanks!

Global financial crime sees $2-$5 trillion 💰 laundered yearly, with efforts to reclaim less than 1%. Enter the #Transparency Fabric, a visionary project by GLEIF, @OpenOwnership, & @Open_Sanctions, poised to revolutionize the battle against financial misconduct. #MoneyLaundering

@INTERPOL_HQ Hello! We noticed that you've started blocking crawlers from accessing the Red Notices API to access data. Is this a defect or something that's a policy decision?

The Transparency Fabric, a joint effort by GLEIF, @OpenOwnership & @Open_Sanctions, is reshaping the battle against money laundering! Streamlining cross-border payment checks with accurate data & int'l identifiers boosts efficiency in #compliance efforts. youtu.be/_Rotgiz8WnY

We also started publishing this dataset and the GLEIF data in @senzing format this week - making it really easy to merge it up with other datasets for investigations.

The benefits of standardisation of #beneficialownership data Reuse datasets from @OpenOwnership produced in line with the Beneficial Ownership Data Standard and then mapped to the FollowTheMoney data model by @open_sanctions opensanctions.org/datasets/openo… #openstandards #opendata
