Trade & Sanctions
Analysis of tariff policy, sanctions compliance, and export controls.
Why this collection exists
Your company imports components from multiple countries and sells into markets where sanctions screening is required. Tariff policy shifted several times in the last year. The Supreme Court weighed in on IEEPA tariff authority. Section 232 tariffs now cover semiconductors. A proposed 100% tariff on Canadian goods would reshape North American supply chains overnight.
Separately, Russia sanctions legislation is expanding secondary sanctions exposure for companies with any touchpoint to Russian supply chains. OFAC enforcement is increasing, and the screening obligations for mid-market companies are more demanding than they were two years ago.
This collection covers the tariff, sanctions, and trade compliance developments that affect companies with cross-border operations, international supply chains, or customers in regulated markets.
