Survey Finds Most Companies Won’t Do Business with Trade Regulation Violators

March 1, 2011 Caroline Export Compliance No comments

A recent survey by Deloitte found potential trade violations to be a deal breaker for the majority of companies surveyed.

Sixty-two percent of respondents to Deloitte’s annual “Look Before You Leap” survey of more than 500 corporate executives, investment bankers, private equity executives and hedge fund managers renegotiated or pulled out of deals over the past three years due to potential violations of economic or trade sanctions. The numbers were higher in the financial sector, with 64 percent of financial industry pulling out of deals due to these issues.

Eighteen percent of respondents renegotiated or pulled out of deals due to concerns regarding the target’s use of agents, consultants, distributors or third parties. Thirty-two percent of respondents cited weaknesses in due diligence, screening and compliance programs, including quality of data and effectiveness of screening controls as a cause for renegotiating or breaking a deal. Trade with high-risk countries such as Iran and Cuba was another factor for 17 percent of respondents while trade with denied parties was another concern for 16 percent of survey respondents.

Full survey findings are available at http://www.deloitte.com/us/pr/lookbeforeyouleap2010.
