Sanctions Compliance
Attain Commodities does not engage in any transaction involving parties, products, or jurisdictions subject to sanctions under applicable U.S. or international law. This includes but is not limited to OFAC sanctions, BIS export controls, and analogous restrictions.
All counterparties are screened against applicable sanctions lists prior to engagement. We do not make exceptions. We do not provide detailed explanation for declines related to sanctions compliance.
This firm boundary exists to protect all parties and the integrity of the transactions we facilitate.
Counterparty Vetting
Every counterparty — buyer, supplier, or intermediary — is vetted before we proceed with any transaction. Vetting is a genuine assessment, not a formality.
We ask direct questions and expect direct answers. We may request documentation including trade references, financial standing evidence, inspection certifications, or other verification materials.
We do not proceed with counterparties who cannot or will not provide sufficient information to complete our qualification process.
Restricted Markets
We do not facilitate transactions into markets or jurisdictions subject to comprehensive sanctions, export controls, or trade restrictions under applicable international or U.S. law.
This is a firm boundary. We do not make exceptions and we do not provide rationale for declines related to compliance matters.
Counterparties originating from or destined for high-risk jurisdictions are subject to enhanced scrutiny.
Compliance is non-negotiable
We do not cut corners on sanctions and jurisdiction screening regardless of commercial attractiveness.
We ask direct questions
Expect to answer questions about your company, counterparties, and end destination. This is standard due diligence.
Declines are not explained
We do not provide detailed rationale for compliance-related declines. This protects all parties.
Documentation Standards
Commodity transactions require proper documentation. We expect counterparties to maintain accurate records and provide documentation as required for each transaction.
Buyers and suppliers should have the following ready before engaging:
