Build a sanctions compliance management system in ten steps
Establish and maintain a compliance management system for sanctions following ISO 37301
ISO 37301 is a global standard that provides a framework for managing compliance, from sanctions and data privacy to export controls and beyond. It helps organisations implement the policies, processes and controls to build and maintain a strong compliance culture.
By following ISO 37301, you will:
simplify compliance management with a single, guided framework
effectively identify, assess and mitigate compliance risks
strengthen compliance with legal and regulatory requirements
enhance trust and credibility with stakeholders.
Speeki’s ISO 37301 checklist: Compliance management system for sanctions
Our checklist shows how to use ISO 37301 to build and maintain a compliance management system for sanctions. It helps organisations align with regulatory requirements and internal objectives while creating a structured approach to managing sanctions risks.
The checklist covers:
developing a roadmap for a sanctions CMS
conducting a sanctions risk assessment
securing leadership commitment
drafting a sanctions compliance policy
defining objectives and planning
implementing controls and screening
providing training and communication
monitoring and reporting performance
carrying out audits and reviews

‘Many organisations underestimate how quickly sanctions risks can escalate without a structured compliance system. ISO 37301 helps address that gap.’
