We are delighted to present ‘Navigating the latest US & Allied International Sanctions Regime in the Insurance sector’ a Moody’s Governance, Risk and Compliance workshop.
Unprecedented changes and pace in the sanctions regime have been continuously deployed since last year. New sanctions have encroached further into the regional and international trade space. This new regime of sanctions has made the long-held distinctions between sanctions, sanctions by extension known as the 50% OFAC rule, secondary sanctions, and sanctions circumvention control more nebulous and risky.
Reconciling and interpreting new requirements with practical applications became uncertain and challenging. While until recently the relatively straightforward sanctions listings have been prevailing, more complex cases are dominating nowadays with critical questions remaining over shell companies’ onboarding and business ownership and control. Any misalignment in terms of timing, interpretation or targets fuels compliance high risks for multi-national and multi-jurisdictional organizations.
