What is FOCI Risk and Why Should I Care?

A US company is considered to be under FOCI (Foreign Ownership, Control or Influence) when a foreign interest has the power, direct or indirect, whether or not exercised, to direct or decide matters affecting the management or operations of the company in a manner which may result in unauthorized access to classified information or may affect adversely the performance of classified contracts. 1 NATIONAL INDUSTRIAL SECURITY PROGRAM OPERATING MANUAL (NIPSOM) Paragraph 2-300a

It’s more than a national security concern.

JUMP IN CHINA-LINKED ESPIONAGE CASES 2

The U.S. government has assessed China as a major threat due to their supply chain dominance, economic coercion and cyber attacks. Information and Communications Technology (ICT) is identified as a key target, potentially threatening all entities with an IP address and/or foreign vendors, in addition to government systems.

FBI COUNTERINTELLIGENCE CASES LINK TO CHINA 3

CORPORATES CLAIM CHINA HAS STOLEN THEIR IP WITHIN THE LAST YEAR 4

How prevalent is Chinese FOCI risk?

Exiger’s experts used our own technology platform to analyze the amount of goods being shipped directly from China, Chinese goods shipped by third-party countries, and its recipients in 2021. The resulting picture demonstrates economic dependence on Chinese supply chains and products in the Americas, despite heightened security and counterfeit risks.

China is estimated to be responsible for 70% of the world’s counterfeit goods, valued at $285B USD, totaling 12.5% of exports and 1.5% of their GDP. 5

With Supply Chain Explorer, our analysts discovered the U.S. was the #1 destination for Chinese shipments, with electrical machinery and equipment being the most common shipment category.

We define foreign influence as an entity’s dependence on a foreign entity or foreign adversary for revenue, funding, debt, supply, infrastructure or other non-ownership based economic relationships that create a measurable degree of impact on the entity’s decision-making and interests. What companies need to be aware of is when the influence creates a risk like cyber vulnerabilities, supply chain disruption or avenues to obtain and exploit your intellectual property for their gain. Influence is the soft underbelly for the US and Ally industrial base.

How do you define influence?

BRANDON DANIELS Exiger CEO

What can I do about it?

It’s time to get acquainted with your suppliers, and your suppliers’ suppliers. In a recent global market study of over 300 risk management professionals, Exiger, in partnership with Stax Inc., found that 77% of large companies indicated the need to monitor risks of suppliers down to Tier 3 or deeper. Our award-winning technology platform solution is designed to surface risk related to FOCI, as well as Financial Health, Cybersecurity, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG), Modern Slavery, and other critical risk factors that matter most to your shareholders and customers.
