Episode 430 — OFAC Issue New Iran General License X

This episode examines OFAC’s new Iran General License X and why it may represent one of the most significant Iran sanctions developments in years. Michael Volkov explains what the license authorizes, why it matters amid ongoing diplomatic negotiations, and why companies should not mistake temporary sanctions relief for a permanent policy shift. The episode highlights practical compliance steps, including careful transaction analysis, documentation, due diligence, screening updates, and close monitoring before the license expires. As always, the focus is on practical, risk-based compliance: helping companies identify legitimate business opportunities while protecting ethics, integrity, and trust.
