Global Learning for Operational Leaders
Introduction
Course overview
Economic and trade sanctions have become one of the most dynamic and high-risk areas of compliance. Sanctions regimes change quickly, apply across borders and can affect payments, trade, shipping, investments and ordinary commercial relationships. Breaches can result in heavy penalties, loss of banking relationships and serious reputational harm.
This Sanctions Compliance and Screening training course explains how sanctions work and how organisations can build an effective, risk-based sanctions compliance programme. Participants learn about the main types of sanctions, ownership and control rules, screening of customers, counterparties and transactions, alert investigation, and the handling of potential matches and breaches.
The course also covers sanctions evasion techniques, trade and shipping risks, governance, testing and the practical tuning of screening systems.
