The US Treasury Department has identified that the Kremlin-backed financial technology company A7 Network operates using a 'constellation' of hundreds of sub-agents to access the global financial system without showing any sanctioned Russian or other restricted customers in the payment chain.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 3 sources have reported it between 1 Oct 2026 and 2 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You must reassess your compliance checks to detect indirect payment routes like those used by A7 Network, as current sanctions screening may miss hidden sanctioned parties.
