Geo-Economic & Sanctions Risk Strategy Playbook

Building sanctions and export control compliance into strategy proactively, not as a reactive legal scramble

  • Executive
  • Advanced
  • Template Included
Overview

A framework for assessing sanctions and export control exposure across markets, customers, and supply chains, and building compliance and contingency planning into strategy before a sanctions regime change forces a reactive response.

How is this different from the general Geo-Political & Macro

Strategy Risk Playbook? That playbook covers geopolitical risk broadly. This one is specifically focused on sanctions and export control regimes, which have distinct legal compliance requirements and much faster-moving triggers than general geopolitical risk — deserving their own dedicated discipline.

Does this only apply to companies with obvious cross-border exposure

to sanctioned jurisdictions? Sanctions and export control exposure can be less obvious than direct operations in a sanctioned jurisdiction — it can arise through customers, suppliers, or even specific technology categories subject to export controls, which is exactly why systematic mapping matters.
