WEB-BASED TRADE COMPLIANCE ASSESSMENT TOOL

摘要

A method and system for determining of compliance with trade regulations, or any other federal regulations, includes a web based system for access by a user. The user provides information and answers relating to risk factors or exposure factors of the trading entity. The exposure factors are each assigned a weighting factor. Weighted exposure factor answers are totaled and used to calculate an exposure value. Risk factor answers are assigned values and are compared to possible maximum values. Risk factor answers may be identified as imposing a greater or lesser risk as indicated by color codes. A total of the risk answer values is compared to a total of maximum values to obtain a risk value. The risk value and exposure value are plotted on a matrix. The matrix may be color coded for different levels of risk/exposure. The user may determine from the method and system if consultation relating to trade compliance is warranted.
