About this webinar

The Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security’s Affiliates Rule served as a stress test for many corporate compliance programs. While the rule focuses on export control gaps involving non-listed affiliates of restricted parties, the readiness process exposed a broader challenge: many organizations still struggle to identify ownership, control, affiliation, and network-based risk across complex third-party ecosystems.

Join Kharon and KPMG for a discussion on how companies can apply lessons from Affiliates Rule readiness to strengthen broader risk management programs across export controls, sanctions, third-party due diligence, and supply chain risk. The session will examine how organizations are reassessing data governance, escalation workflows, control ownership, and cross-functional accountability to better identify and mitigate risk exposure beyond export controls alone.

In this webinar, we will discuss:

  • What the Affiliates Rule readiness process revealed about data gaps, screening workflows, and compliance program maturity.

  • How ownership, control, and affiliation risks can affect broader sanctions, supply chain, and third-party risk programs.

  • Why strong data governance, control ownership, and escalation processes are essential for defensible decision-making.

  • How intelligence and data can help identify hidden risk beyond named-party screening.

  • Practical steps companies can take to strengthen and scale risk controls so they are prepared for what may come next.
