The U.S. and its allies use economic sanctions as critical tools to achieve national security goals and to protect the international world order. They can’t achieve these objectives without the compliance of all U.S. individuals, organizations and commercial entities, including their foreign subsidiaries. In other words, your business is inextricably allied with the U.S. government in this fight, no matter how remote the events in Ukraine seem or how far off the regulatory radar you believe your operations to be.
This white paper reveals the key battlegrounds on which the U.S. is mostly likely to wage this sanctions war over the next 12 to 18 months and the serious regulatory repercussions they will generate for U.S. businesses. In addition, it identifies the most critical screening areas of a risk-based sanctions compliance program that matches what is expected by regulatory agencies like the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
