A circular provides supplementary guidance for financial institutions (FIs) to enhance their ability to detect and handle risks associated with sanctions. FIs must maintain rigorous oversight from their Board and Senior Management regarding sanctions-related risks. Additionally, they should improve their sanctions detection capabilities. FIs should assess their anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-financing of terrorism (CFT) frameworks and controls using the guidance here and enhance them if any deficiencies are identified.
