Export promotion programmes: Lithuania's case
15-01-2024

Exports of goods are an important driver of business productivity and economic growth (Mota et al., 2021). Nobody doubts the benefits of exporting today. The government aims to increase the competitiveness of business and industry in international trade and to promote job creation and economic growth by creating a business-friendly environment. Exports are an important part of business, both for the national economy and for the growth and development of businesses themselves. Economic growth, especially in small countries, is driven by foreign trade, making the promotion of exports a crucial task for a country. The dynamics and development of export growth depend on the implementation of a targeted export policy by the government, and exports are a key factor of economic growth for various countries, including Lithuania.

Certain critical export-controlled product groups to be aware of
01-06-2023

The main purpose of the article is to raise awareness of certain product groups that are subject to export control. This concerns in particular drive and automation products as well as emerging technologies in the high-tech industry. For example, inverters can have a special software extension for output frequencies above 600 Hz, which is critical because this type of product can be used in chemical centrifuges and nuclear power plants in sanctioned countries.

Export control: the need for an internal compliance programme
14-05-2023

What is an Internal Compliance Programme (ICP) and what are its core elements? What if the ICP is not required by law, should companies still use it? The answer is definitely yes. Even if your company does not fall under the criteria for a mandatory ICP, it is important to have one in place if you deal with export-controlled items.

Export control in trade within EU: 3 case studies
22-01-2023

Even in these difficult times, it is important for all companies to always conduct their business legally safely. While a few months ago it was still completely 'normal' business within the European Union or third countries, things can be very different at the moment. Possessing an end-use statement makes a lot of sense, even if you are making only a seemingly harmless sale of goods within the European Union. Let's take a look at 3 practical examples.
