Russia sanctions - checklists for implementation

Financial service providers must ensure that new sanctions are quickly and effectively integrated into processes. But what exactly needs to be done to implement the large number of sanctions in the companies? And how do they ensure that new sanctions imposed are recognised on a daily basis? We provide an overview of the challenges that legal and compliance units, specialist departments and IT departments are now facing.

Governance, organisation, processes & tools

A manual check of the customer base for a match with the new Russian sanctioned persons is very time-consuming and certainly only practicable in small companies. The use of specialised watchlist providers is essential, at the latest in the corporate client business of banks and insurance companies and thus for checking the beneficial owner, as various sanctions lists have to be checked. Another advantage is that the check is logged and this is important evidence in the context of a customs and external audit.

Communication & training

The operational implementation of the new sanctions requires unscheduled employee training on the current economic sanctions. Refresher training, which takes place in addition to regular training and focuses on sanctions, not only helps employees to gain a better understanding of the situation, but also to implement instructions competently. In addition, the special training courses make it possible to reprioritise the limited employee capacities.

Documentation

To implement the sanctions against Russia, Germany is participating in an international task force involving the United States, the EU Commission, Canada, France and Italy. In addition, various chambers of industry and commerce in Germany have set up regional task forces to provide targeted advice to affected companies on the implementation of the sanctions. A binding statement on how often and in what way customer data must be checked against sanctions lists is not specified by the legislator.

Three steps to ESG leadership

Here you will find a set of three white papers that together form a detailed guide on the topics of ESG leadership, the introduction of a sustainable corporate culture and sustainability communication.

Initiating a sustainable corporate culture

Developing a strategy presents a unique opportunity to expand your company’s vision and position yourself in the market with an enhanced and visionary business objective. By consciously integrating sustainability aspects into your strategy, we can not only expand your reach but also have a positive impact on society and the environment. This expansion of your vision allows you to establish yourself as a leader in a changing market and tap into new opportunities beyond purely financial goals.

Fundamentals of sustainability communication

The effective implementation of ESG corporate strategy involves conducting collaborative strategy workshops. These workshops bring together internal and external stakeholders to develop, refine, or modify ESG strategies collaboratively. By leveraging collective knowledge and perspectives of various stakeholders, organizations can develop robust ESG frameworks that align with stakeholder expectations and corporate goals.

Step-by-step guide to ESG leadership

ESG leadership means that companies have a clear vision for sustainability and actively implement this in their actions. It is about firmly integrating environmental, social and governance aspects into the corporate culture and not just treating them as peripheral issues. ESG leadership requires a strong commitment from the company management and consistent implementation of these values at all levels of the organisation.
