The BIS 50% Rule: Taking the Critical Next Steps

The long-awaited 50% rule from BIS is here – and it changes everything. It is now mandatory for exporters to conduct ownership screening on parties to their transactions prior to shipping. Name-based checks alone are insufficient. Companies must reliably identify ultimate owners across an unprecedented range of jurisdictions, product categories, and trading relationships, immediately. This increased regulatory obligation demands depth of insight into ownership structures. Sayari’s first-to-market BIS 50 solution empowers customers to illuminate hidden affiliate relationships and satisfy the rule’s strict liability standard.

In This Session

• Beyond Name-Based Screening Move beyond basic screening and expand your compliance program to account for ownership-based controls that satisfy BIS 50 requirements
• Resource Efficiency & Red Flags Best practices for managing limited compliance resources while navigating the rule’s new “red flag” for indeterminate ownership
• Affiliate Discovery at Scale How to identify tens of thousands of restricted entities and illuminate hidden affiliate relationships using advanced data
• Foreign Direct Product Rules Navigate expanded applicability using technical solutions and continuous monitoring across 9B+ records
