New UANI Resource: Iran Risk Snapshot

New UANI Resource: Iran Risk Snapshot  New York, NY: United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) today released a new tool that graphically demonstrates the risks of doing business with Iran. Displaying 27 financial, legal and sociopolitical indices from leading global organizations, the Iran Risk Snapshot lays bare the fact that Iran consistently ranks at or near the bottom of every measure of business environment. Navigating Iran's already treacherous and risky business environment got even tougher on October 13, when President Trump opted to "decertify" the Iran nuclear deal (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action or JCPOA); warned that he was prepared to withdraw from the JCPOA if no meaningful changes were made to the agreement; and designated the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in its entirety as a terror organization. "It's time for Western firms to decide: America or Iran, but not both - the 'wait and see' approach is clearly no longer tenable given the overwhelming risks for responsible businesses," said UANI CEO Ambassador Mark D. Wallace. Whether or not Congress ultimately decides to re-impose sanctions on Iran ahead of December 12, the hundreds of Western companies that have signaled their intention to enter the Iranian market can no longer ignore the myriad risks inherent in doing business with Iran. Western companies must now "come off the fence" and make a choice: America's $19 trillion market or Iran's $400 billion market.    VIEW THIS RESOURCE About UANI UANI is an independent, not-for-profit, non-partisan, advocacy group founded in 2008 by Ambassador Mark D.
