Global Sanctions List
A global sanctions list is a comprehensive compilation of individuals, organizations, and entities that are subject to international sanctions. These lists are maintained by governments and international bodies, detailing those who are restricted from certain economic activities, such as trade and financial transactions.
Businesses must regularly check global sanctions lists to ensure compliance with international regulations and avoid engaging in prohibited activities. Non-compliance can lead to severe legal and financial penalties, as well as reputational damage.
Sanction lists are used in customer due diligence (CDD) processes to screen new and existing clients, partners, and transactions. Using automated screening tools and staying updated on changes to these lists helps businesses effectively manage compliance risks and maintain ethical operations.
