A Framework for OFAC Compliance Commitments
2019年5月3日，美国财政部海外资产控制办公室（简称“OFAC”）发布了《OFAC合规承诺框架》（简称《合规框架》）—如附件，其中列明了OFAC认为一项有效的经济制裁合规计划需具备的基本要素。
OFAC认为，对于任何可能遭受美国初级或次级制裁的船东、租船人或贸易商来说，确保其不会违反制裁规定非常重要。如今，《合规框架》的发布，明确了OFAC所期望的有效制裁合规计划需具备的组成要件。OFAC已明确表示，如果经查已违反制裁规定的公司并未采纳该框架，会增加其受到处罚的可能性和严厉程度。

Guidance On The United States Sanctions Compliance Programs Published By The US Office Of Foreign Assets Control
On May 3, 2019, the United States Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) published A Framework for OFAC Compliance Commitments (the Compliance Framework) – (attached), which sets out OFAC’s views of the essential elements of an effective economic sanctions compliance program.
OFAC considers it important for any shipowner, charterer or trader that may be subject to US primary or secondary sanctions to ensure that it does not break sanctions. The publication of the Compliance Framework has now clarified OFAC’s expectations of the essential components of an effective sanctions’ compliance program. OFAC has made it clear that a failure to adopt the framework increases the likelihood and severity of penalties being imposed on a company that is found to have broken sanctions.
