Spezial Chief export compliance officer (CECO) in the company
Export control is a matter for the boss! Responsibility and liability for exports
If a company based in Germany exports goods that require an export license, a chief export compliance officer (CECO) must be appointed to the german Federal Office of Economics and Export Control (BAFA). The CECO must be a member of the board of directors or management and is responsible for the organization and supervision of export controls throughout the company. Managing directors and board members are therefore personally liable in Germany for organizational violations of foreign trade law. BAFA expects you to be aware of the obligations applicable to exporters and to implement a functioning Internal Compliance Program (ICP).
A foreign national residing outside the Federal Republic of Germany can also be the person responsible for exports of a German company. In order to meet the needs of this target group, the AWA is now also offering this webinar in English. This event is not only suitable for those foreign managers who are to perform the function of the CECO. Those responsible in the foreign parent companies that second these managers can also find out about their duties under German law in the export sector.
