FISC and Sanctions SOS

FISC was the sanctions compliance journal for institutions and professionals in the financial services sector, their advisors, and customers.

FISC addressed the sanctions and related challenges facing the financial sector, their customers and advisors, with insight and practical guidance on compliance. 

It explored topics and issues such as:

• Parsing the pronouncements of regulators, such as OFAC in the United States, OFSI in the UK, Singapore’s MAS, the HKMA in Hong Kong, and Germany’s BAFA.  
• Best practices in screening, CDD and on-boarding.  Understanding the compliance challenges of industry-specific customer segments.
• Proliferation finance dangers for lenders.
•  The compliance challenges posed by crypto-currencies.  
• Export controls and new areas of national security law as they pertain to financial institutions.

It took a thoroughly international perspective, each issue of FISC included perspectives from leading experts in legal practice, banks and other financial institutions, government, industry, academia and think-tanks.
