UK Sanctions Compliance Statement
NetSecGroup complies fully with the United Kingdom sanctions regime. We do not engage with any person, organisation, or entity designated under the UK Sanctions List, and we operate screening and governance processes designed to ensure that position is maintained across clients, suppliers, subcontractors, and personnel.
Scope
This statement applies to every party with whom NetSecGroup has a commercial, contractual, or employment relationship. That includes clients, suppliers, subcontractors, employees, directors, and professional advisors.
Legal basis
We operate in accordance with the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Act 2018, the relevant statutory instruments implementing the UK sanctions regime, and guidance issued by the Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI). The UK Sanctions List maintained by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office is the primary authoritative list against which screening is conducted.
Screening process
- All prospective clients are screened against the UK Sanctions List at onboarding
- All prospective suppliers and subcontractors are screened at onboarding and annually thereafter
- All personnel engaged by the business are screened at onboarding and annually thereafter
- Any match or credible indication of a potential match triggers an immediate pause in engagement pending investigation
Refusal to engage
NetSecGroup refuses to enter into, and will terminate without prejudice to damages, any engagement with a party identified as designated under the UK Sanctions List, or a party reasonably believed to be acting on behalf of such a designated party.
Responsible person
The Director of NetSecGroup is accountable for sanctions compliance, and ensures the screening, investigation, and reporting processes remain operational, proportionate, and documented.
Reporting and escalation
Any concern about a potential sanctions breach, whether arising from a client engagement, supplier relationship, or external report, should be directed to [email protected]. Confirmed or strongly suspected breaches are reported to OFSI in line with statutory reporting obligations.
Related regimes
Where a client engagement has a connection to additional sanctions regimes (including but not limited to the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control, the European Union, and the United Nations), NetSecGroup respects those obligations as they apply to the engagement and reflects them in the engagement contract.
Review
This statement is reviewed annually and upon any material change to the UK sanctions regime.
