About Lior

I implement pragmatic and transversal compliance programs. No more silos.

The legal expertise of a lawyer and 9 years of banking business experience are at your disposal to create risk maps, policies, and procedures that are practical, applicable, and relevant.

I have 10 years of experience in compliance and audit acquired on 3 continents in a large banking group and an international law firm.
An expert in compliance regulations, export controls, and economic sanctions/asset freezes, I have assisted financial institutions, industrial companies, and cryptocurrency platforms.
You can count on me for a pragmatic approach that puts into practice a perfect knowledge of the texts and market standards. I have a tech mindset and am capable of working on tools and transformation (Agile training).
I am a lawyer registered with the Paris Bar, which guarantees perfect confidentiality in our exchanges covered by **professional secrecy**.
Specifically, you can call on me for the following subjects:
- implementation of a third-party due diligence program, particularly in the context of asset freezes and sanctioned countries
- analysis of the legality of transactions or operations related to sanctioned individuals, including EU and OFAC, but also BIS Entity List (export control),
- mapping of export control risks for your industrial activity, with classification of high-risk activities and technologies,
- application for authorization on the basis of Russia sanctions or export controls (DGA, SBDU, DGT),
- analysis of the legal and operational framework for external growth, in relation to sanctions, LCB-FT, or export control,
- conflicts of laws (US sanctions, EU blocking regulation, Chinese sanctions...)

Group Compliance Lead - 03 - SE - Global functions

Reviewed on 4/20/2026

Lior provided exceptional work within a short timeframe and a complex environment: our company operates in about a hundred countries, with multiple business models and a sprawling organization, and Lior quickly grasped the issues and finely analyzed the essentials. The mission involved setting up an AML/CFT Compliance program, with deliverables including: a risk map, a written policy, and operational procedures. Lior visited our headquarters on-site when necessary, combining it with remote sessions. He did not hesitate to sometimes go beyond the scope of the mission by alerting us to related issues or advising us on improvements (sanctions, export control). I highly recommend Lior's work, and we would not hesitate to call on him again for other missions.
