The Cost of Non-Compliance
Sanctions violations carry
severe consequences

Regulators worldwide impose heavy penalties for sanctions breaches — even when no harm was intended.

$1.3B+

Financial penalties

OFAC alone has issued fines exceeding $1.3 billion for a single sanctions breach. Even smaller violations regularly result in fines of $50,000 to $1 million or more.

Criminal liability

Personal & criminal risk

In serious cases, responsible individuals face criminal charges and imprisonment — not just the business. Directors and compliance officers can be held personally liable.

Reputational damage

Loss of banking & trust

Banks may freeze accounts or terminate relationships upon detecting sanctions exposure. Clients, partners and regulators may permanently withdraw trust.

⚠ Strict Liability Regime

"Honest mistakes" are not a defence

Most major sanctions regimes — including OFAC, UN, UK OFSI, EU and Canada SEMA — operate under a strict liability model. This means a business can face penalties even if the sanctions breach was entirely accidental and unintentional.

Regulators expect every organisation to have a documented screening process, an audit trail of checks performed, and evidence of regular due diligence against updated sanctions lists. Failing to screen is treated as negligence, not an oversight.

What regulators expect you to have:

  • A documented sanctions screening process
  • Regular checks against up-to-date sanctions lists
  • An audit trail of every screening decision
  • Evidence of due diligence at onboarding and ongoing
  • Coverage of all relevant sanctions jurisdictions
  • A process for handling potential matches
