Counterparty Diligence

— a brief on how compliance actually gets done.

An operational account of the counterparty intake, beneficial ownership tracing, supply-chain verification, and documentation disciplines that make commercial activity in sanctioned environments defensible. Written for readers who understand that compliance is not the subject of a separate department but the architecture within which the commerce occurs.

The worked example is Myanmar; the methodology generalises to commercial activity touching any jurisdiction where United States sanctions authority and commercial opportunity coexist.

Myanmar Market Access

— a brief on entry, risk, and what actually works.

A framing document on commercial engagement with Myanmar under present conditions — what remains investable, why most foreign capital fails, what compliance architecture actually works, and what the interaction between community trust and commercial durability means for structuring ventures.

Intended as a practitioner's note rather than a consultant's summary. Directly names the post-coup regulatory environment and works through seven structural questions without euphemism.
