WASHINGTON, May 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- For the past two years, the Institute for Financial Integrity (IFI) and international law firm Crowell & Moring have partnered on the global delivery of a training program aimed at promoting understanding of sanctions and strategic trade controls. The high-impact training program-already delivered in 18 countries, has officially been expanded to over 10 countries this year, signaling both its success and growing demand across borders.
In today's interconnected global economy, understanding and adhering to sanctions regulations is paramount. From financial regulators, law enforcement agencies, border and customs services to financial institutions, law firms, and companies in logistics, mining, real estate, construction, air and sea cargo, the program has convened key stakeholders across public and private sector institutions-those working on the frontlines of financial integrity and playing a critical role in safeguarding the global financial system.
"It's been a privilege and pleasure to deliver these trainings in countries around the world, engaging directly with central banks, financial institutions, and compliance professionals who are actively tackling challenges and eager to sharpen their capabilities," said David (Dj) Wolff, co-chair of Crowell & Moring's International Trade Group. "We look forward to continuing this important work together over the next year."
Designed to strengthen both policy understanding and practical risk management, the sponsored training program covers multilateral and bilateral sanctions regimes, strategic trade controls, emerging evasion tactics, and mitigation strategies.
- In-Person Instructor-Led Training: Immersive, scenario-based sessions with live interpretation, tailored to local contexts.
- Industry Certification: Eligibility to earn IFI'sGlobal Sanctions (CRMS-GS) Certification
to strengthen expertise, skills, and judgment to identify, assess, and manage ongoing and emerging risks associated with sanctions.
- Online Continuing Education: One-year access to IFI's DOLFIN platform offering expert insights, webinars, newsletters, AI-powered compliance assistant, and more.
"At IFI, we're thrilled to be partnering with one of the world's most respected legal institutions to deliver a training program that sets the global standard," said Natalie Pulsifer, Senior Director at IFI. "This collaboration allows us to pair deep legal insight with practical, hands-on training for institutions navigating today's rapidly evolving risk landscape."
The continued success of this program highlights a shared commitment: empowering global institutions with the knowledge and tools to navigate an increasingly complex regulatory environment, ensure compliance, and mitigate risks effectively, ultimately protecting the integrity of the financial system.
