VTU is responsible for the review and triage of companies for business or foreign ownership, control, or influence (FOCI) risk indicators. In addition, VTU adjudicates companies’ eligibility, and continued eligibility for an FCL. DDU conducts business and security-related research and analysis of companies to inform decision makers of risks impacting initial and continued entity eligibility.
