The disclosure relates to entity disambiguation in an interactive fashion based upon attributes. Once disambiguated, a manner in which to review a future article based upon an initial set of attributes and an additional set of attributes and, when needed, generate a warning flag based upon the review is also described. The warning flag may result in a change in the relationship between the entity and an organization such as a bank that is considering engaging in a business relationship with a candidate client, and that may subsequently abandon that plan, or a bank that had previously extended credit to the entity, and that subsequently may be less inclined as a result of the information retrieved by the present invention. A previously accepted entity may also be flagged for credit or anti-money laundering consideration if and when the applicant's situation (e.g., financial situation, involvement in anti-money laundering) changes.
