ICA Certificate in Managing Sanctions Risk

Course Overview

Sanctions can be a complex topic and dealing with sanctioned parties can be a risky business. National or international sanctions may be issued against individuals, entities, groups or nations; or even trading activities/particular sectors. This introductory level 2 qualification is suitable for those working in financial crime and regulatory compliance who wish to learn more about this topic.



Course Content

Those bodies charged with enforcing sanctions compliance are particularly active at the moment, with multiple fines for firms in recent years stretching into billions of dollars. The course has been designed for those who need to understand the fundamentals of sanctions and recognise key issues, particularly relating to the risks they can present.

You will study this course in your own time and at your own pace, and you have up to 2 months to complete it.

You will learn:

  • Understanding sanctions
  • The international context
  • Defining a sanctions governance framework
  • Sanctions lists and screening
