About this webinar

As export controls become a central pillar of the current national security landscape, the aerospace and defense sector must navigate a fundamentally rewired compliance environment. This webinar examines how the increasing centralization of economic security policies is reshaping international trade compliance. Our panel will discuss the impact of these changes on enforcement risk, reputational standing, and how teams are using intelligence to pinpoint vulnerabilities and ensure global footprints are both regulatory-compliant and operationally resilient.

This event will cover:

  • The BIS List downstream ownership: a review of the “knowledge” standards for BIS affiliates and ownership. Panelists will share best practices on how firms are navigating the complexities of identifying opaque ownership structures back to listed entities and deploying technology to augment their processes.
  • Military end-use exposure: civil-military fusion, academic/military integration, and dual-use diversion risk remain critical areas of concern. We will address the increased expectation on the private sector to proactively identify exposure to these risks rather than relying on government lists.
  • Enforcement risk and regulatory trends: the 2025 National Security Strategy elevated export controls to a top-tier priority, supported by increased enforcement funding and bipartisan focus. This shift—backed by a material increase in BIS export enforcement funding (with an April 2026 agency budget request seeking $450M, a 150% increase) and significant fines from DDTC and BIS—signals a new era of proactive enforcement that companies can no longer afford to ignore.
