8 Understanding the risk
9 Important Announcement Caution Sanctions, Embargoes and Boycott are used as foreign policy tools and it is acceptable to not agree with the objectives, reasons and principles behind their usage. The objective of this forum is to understand the risks in global trade resulting from Sanctions, Embargoes, and Boycott and exchange ideas to manage the risk. 9
10 Generally imposed by developed nations 10
11 Understanding Sanctions Can be explained in various ways, easily defined as Sanctions defined Deliberate government inspired withdrawal Or Threat of withdrawal of customary trade, financial relationship or seizure of assets 11 Sanctions defined Economic tool to force a change in foreign policy of a target country Or To bring about a general change in its behaviour
12 Understanding Sanctions History of Sanctions Old history: first known example is in 432 BC, when Athens sought to choke the economy of the city-state of Megara by excluding its merchants from Athenian controlled territories Back then sanctions contributed to war (in that case, the Peloponnesian War) rather than averting hostility Recent history: South Africa ( Success) Burma ( Success, time will tell the complete story) Iran ( Partial success) Sudan ( Partial success) North Korea ( Failure) Syria ( Failure) Cuba ( Failure) 12
13 Understanding Sanctions Stated objectives Human Rights ( Myanmar) Counterterrorism (ISIS / Al Qaida) Regime change (Syria) Non proliferation (Iran / North Korea) Conflict resolution ( Crimea / DRC) Cybersecurity (Russia) 13
14 Geopolitical Risk 14
15 Understanding Sanctions Embargo vs Sanctions Embargo Sanctions Full or complete import prohibition. No good is allowed to be imported from the embargoed country. Also called an absolute embargo. Example: The US has an import embargo against Cuba and Syria. No good can be imported from Cuba or Syria. Restrictions on dealings with countries, persons or entities & prohibition of certain types of goods. Also called an partial embargo. Example: The EU has an import / export sanction against North Korea for arms and related material and for items that can contribute to North Korea s nuclear-related, ballistic missile-related or other weapons of mass destruction-related programs. 15
16 Understanding Sanctions Types of Sanctions Comprehensive List based Similar to complete Embargo Blocks all trade with sanctioned countries. unless licensed Iran Syria North Korea Cuba Prohibits from engaging in activities with persons and entities who are listed on Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons list, unless licensed Iraq DRC Lebanon Sudan 16
17 How are Sanctions enforced?
18 How are Sanctions enforced? Charter of the United Nations CHAPTER VII, Article 41 The Security Council may decide on measures, not involving the use of armed force are to be employed to give effect to its decisions, and it may call upon the members of the United Nations to apply such measures. These may include complete or partial interruption of economic relations and of rail, sea, air, postal, telegraphic, radio, and other means of communication, and the severance of diplomatic relations Despite inflicting intended human distress, sanctions are often justified as a more ethical alternative to war. 18
19 How are Sanctions enforced? Who enforces these regulations? UN Security Council EU External Action HM Treasury UK DFAT, Australia METI, Japan MAS, Singapore BIS, USA OFAC, USA DOJ, USA 19
20 Why are we concerned?

42 How do we manage the risk?
43 How do we manage the risk? Identifying red-flags Knowing your products well is important The End Use of the product The End User of the product Whether the end user is controlled by an sanctioned entity. Whether is product is subjected to Export Control regulations both Turkish and Foreign Are any of the goods dual-use Are there any license required to export Are the goods restricted / licensed in the destination country Does the product contain components of foreign origin ( US or EU origin) Ultimate consignee address 43
44 How do we manage the risk? In practice Trade Compliance Risk-Assessment Due diligence on your third parties Negotiating Trade Compliance clauses while contracting Company wide policies, procedures and check-list Train employees on policies, procedures and check-list Periodic monitoring and audits Restricted party screening mandatory for all third parties Insurance coverage must be checked, if not covered under insurance, liability must be limited through contract clause Recusal policy for US Citizens / Residents, if employed. Stay updated on the latest developments and keep stakeholders informed Avoid nexus with US 44
45 How do we manage the risk? Why restricted party screening? Screening is a risk management process that prevents you organisation from engaging in activities with prohibited and restricted entities Restricted Party Lists change everyday Legal prohibitions apply differently depending on facts of a specific transaction Legal prohibitions differ for each list Remember it isn t just the law its Reputation! 45
46 How do we manage the risk? Who to screen Almost Everyone Clients, Suppliers, Contractors & Business Partners Contracted Employees, Potential New Employees End user, if known All parties to the supply chain Banks, Freight Forwarders, Agents, Distributors, Re-sellers, etc. 46
