Let's begin with Number (1) Prohibition of trading with specified countries and listed entities. In exporting any goods or technologies, the transactions should be screened by using the following three tools and suspicious transactions must be stopped.
(i) Transactions Martrix;
(ii) Canon's DPL;
(iii) Screening Guidelines
Modeled on the concept of catch-all control under the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act, the Transaction Matrix helps identify transactions that warrant suspension or precaution. Combination of destination (country or area) and the status of the counterparty shows whether the transaction is allowed, or prohibited in general. Any transactions "prohibited" on the matrix shall be banned across the group companies.
Please read "Security Trade Control Guidelines" for destination groups.
The Guidelines are downloadable. See "Reference Page" at the end of this course.
