About this position

The Sanctions Officer (SO) is the first tier (first instance) of the IDB Group’s Sanctions System. The Sanctions System addresses allegations of prohibited practices—including corruption, fraud, coercion, collusion, obstruction, and misappropriation—in IDB Group-financed operations. The Office of Institutional Integrity (OII) investigates such claims and submits Statements of Charges and Evidence (SOE) to the SO. The SO’s duties include a thorough examination of the SOE, overseeing the presentation of counterarguments and evidence by those under investigation, and adjudicating the validity of the allegations based on the evidence. If an allegation is substantiated, the SO imposes sanctions in line with the established Sanctions Procedures.
