Our Sanctions Consultancy & Advisory Services

Stay ahead of sanctions! Book a free 1-hour call to tackle EU, UK & U.S. risks and see how our consultancy protects your business.

Sanctions are no longer niche legal obligations — they are central to global trade strategy. From Russia’s war against Ukraine and the EU, UK's and U.S. responses, to Iran’s oil networks, Cuba’s financial restrictions, Venezuela’s corruption-linked sanctions, Syria’s reconstruction bans, and North Korea’s nuclear-related embargoes, enforcement is accelerating across the board.

Businesses that fail to anticipate these rules risk fines, operational disruption, and reputational damage.

At the same time, thematic sanctions are multiplying.

Regulators now target:

• Chemical weapons and non-proliferation

• Corruption and kleptocracy

• Cyberattacks and digital crimes

• Human rights abuses and hostage protection

• Narcotics trafficking and organized crime

• Terrorism, including Hamas and PIJ

  
  

Why Work With Us On Sanctions

1. Multi-Jurisdiction Expertise Navigating the EU, UK, and U.S. sanctions frameworks simultaneously is complex. From OFAC’s secondary sanctions to the EU’s restrictive measures and the UK’s post-Brexit updates, we make sure your compliance program works across borders.

2. Practical, Risk-Focused Approach We translate complex rules into actionable policies. For example, companies sourcing raw materials from Russia or Iran may inadvertently violate trade bans or sectoral restrictions. We show how to structure transactions, implement screening, and document due diligence to reduce risk.

3. Real-Time Monitoring & Updates Sanctions lists and enforcement priorities change daily. From updates on North Korea’s nuclear-related restrictions to new EU regulations on chemical weapons and cyberattacks, we keep your business ahead of the curve.

4. Proven Track Record We’ve helped clients avoid enforcement penalties, respond to regulator inquiries, and maintain trade continuity under challenging circumstances.

5. Tailored Solutions No two businesses face the same risks. Whether your exposure is in finance, shipping, manufacturing, or technology, we craft solutions specific to your operations, counterparties, and geographies.
