Economic sanctions (restrictive measures). Sanction compliance

Unilateral economic sanctions against private businesses have a negative impact not only on the sanctioned persons themselves, but also on the companies working with such persons. Conducting international business in the current sanction’s reality is gradually turning into no less than a minefield.

In this regard, it is extremely important for any company or individual to protect their business from negative consequences in the framework of their relations with counterparties, partners or shareholders by means of sanctions compliance.
