EXBS Legal & Regulatory Support

This opportunity is for a grant to support the EXBS Legal & Regulatory Support program, which aims to address evolving nonproliferation threats across key nodes of the global strategic trade and technology ecosystems in Asia and Europe. The program seeks to close vulnerabilities by strengthening legal and regulatory frameworks, institutional and industry compliance, and data-driven enforcement capabilities to prevent the proliferation of WMD-related, defense, and other sensitive technologies to end-users and activities of concern. Key aspects of the job include: • Strengthening export control and foreign direct investment screening systems in the Philippines, Cambodia, and Malaysia • Tackling the threat of persistent, sophisticated networks exploiting gaps in supply chain, financial, and logistics controls in Taiwan • Confronting diversion and transshipment risks posed by intermediary-dependent trade routes and the absence of widespread private-sector internal compliance programs in Türkiye • Addressing the heightened risk of unauthorized tangible and intangible technology transfers and diversion of U.S.-origin or sensitive items in Ukraine
