OFAC Compliance

Help ensure OFAC compliance with OFAC screening solutions that can help prevent unlawful business with individuals and entities on OFAC watch lists, or in regions under sanctions and embargoes.

 

Every transaction that takes place in U.S. dollars is subject to Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) regulations, and there are stiff penalties for violations. OFAC compliance requires addressing multiple sanction and embargo programs to stem sponsorship of terrorism, narcotics trafficking, money laundering, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, and other international security concerns.

No matter what your business requirements are, there's an easy and effective way to get OFAC compliance screening done consistently and accurately.

OFAC compliance is not optional—it's the law. While ecommerce, car and boat dealerships, banks, securities and investment firms, insurance firms, travel agencies, real estate agencies, and charities may face additional scrutiny, OFAC regulations apply to all organizations operating in the U.S. or engaging with individuals or businesses in the U.S. Failure to perform due diligence to ensure business practices are in line with OFAC regulations means risking severe repercussions.
