What functionality should we be looking for in Trade Compliance software?

Hi

One of the comments I received was around what functionality should be looked for in trade compliance software. I consider this a pretty wide/big topic which would fill several pages. Here are two of my publications from the last 3-5 years that touch on this area.

The first publication is on functionality for restricted party screening and can be found at:

The second publication is a recent one on surprises that may be encountered with Trade Compliance software and can be found at:

Let me know your thoughts and questions.

Happy Reading :)
