Leveraging technology to manage maritime sanctions compliance  [FREE WEBINAR RECORDING AVAILABLE ON-DEMAND]

Exploring the rapidly changing maritime sanctions landscape and discussing the technologies that can aid in risk mitigation.

The maritime sanctions and compliance landscape is rapidly evolving.

Heightened by the severe ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, global awareness of this space has substantially increased.

The levels of complexity in this space are not to be underestimated.

The dynamic nature of the continual changes, coupled with the different organisations involved in implementing sanctions, are elements that require suitable consideration.

If companies have an awareness of the evasion methods used and how to identify them, then procedures can be implemented to prevent any involvement in attempted wrongdoings.

The use of technology and innovative solutions can be a beneficial aid here.

This webinar brought together experts in the maritime sanctions and compliance field to explore and discuss the landscape as a whole, deceptive practices used and how companies can leverage technology to assist in risk mitigation.

The discussion included:

• An understanding of sanctions compliance and why you need an awareness of this space
• An overview of the maritime sanctions landscape, highlighting some of the practices that are commonly used in evasion attempts and the consequences of a breach
• How to create and maintain a sanctions and compliance programme
• Additional aids and tools that can be leveraged to provide effective assistance in risk mitigation against any wrongdoings
