What businesses should knowSanctions compliance has become one of the most demanding regulatory challenges for companies engaged in cross-border trade and services. Although EU restrictive measures have existed for many years, since 2022 they have directly impacted day-to-day business decisions, affecting goods and services, logistics and transport, payments and cooperation with subcontractors.
Deciding whether to continue a business relationship, on what terms and with what level of risk, requires a case-by-case assessment. This typically involves analysing the transaction, the counterparty, and the wider supply chain, including ownership and control structures, contract timing, end use, sectoral exposure, and evolving enforcement practices.
