Abstract: Regulating trade activities comprises receiving information identifying a potential trading party, normalizing at least a portion of the received identifying information to generate a normalized identifier for the potential trading party, comparing the normalized identifier with one or more other normalized identifiers corresponding to parties with whom trade should be restricted, and selectively restricting trading with the potential trading party.

Abstract: A method and system for security management are described. According to one implementation, information concerning a plurality of export documents such as export licenses is maintained, wherein each export document is associated with a monetary amount that needs to be securitized. Further, information concerning a plurality of security positions that have been built up for securing purposes is maintained, each security position having a security amount. The implementation enables an assignment and a release of one or more export documents to a selected one of the security positions. The selected security position is then displayed together with all export documents currently assigned thereto.
