Questions before engagement
What this work is, and what it is not.
Does SIC Group file OFAC removal petitions?
No. SIC Group is not a law firm and does not provide legal representation. A petition is filed by the listed person or organization, or by qualified counsel. SIC Group supports the surrounding evidence, communications, stakeholder, and reputational workstreams.
Can the first review be confidential?
Yes. Initial triage can begin with limited identifying information. Sensitive documents should only be shared after conflict checks and a secure channel are established.
What can be prepared for banks and counterparties?
Typical outputs include a verified chronology, source-list status note, ownership and control context, remediation summary, and a concise exposure memo reviewed against counsel-approved facts.
