DevComm leads the communications, content production, development and maintenance of the EU Sanctions Helpdesk website.
The Helpdesk assists European operators, particularly Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), in complying with European Union sanctions imposed worldwide. It offers a comprehensive range of materials, including informative resources and country-specific guidance. Finally, SMEs - unable to perform due diligence independently - receive support in completing counterparty and transaction assessments.
Created in 2025, the Helpdesk is implemented on behalf of the European Commission by AARC Ltd, as part of the project "Support to EU SMEs on EU Sanctions Due Diligence" (NDICI FPN FPI 2023 / 449-650), which is funded by the Service for Foreign Policy Instruments (FPI) and managed under the auspices of the Directorate General for Financial Stability, Financial Services and Capital Markets Union (DG FISMA).
