Blackbaud organizes your data. Flywire moves your tuition. SecurePoint defends your school.
The Liability Gap
Software Systems are not Compliance Controls
Your SIS and your payment processor are world-class at moving data and money. But they do not absorb institutional legal risk if a sanctioned parent or sponsor slips through the payment portal. The $1.72M IMG Academy OFAC fine proved that schools must operate their own defense.
Four risks hiding between your trusted systems
The "Ghost" Tuition Payer
The student lives in your dorms, but the tuition is wired from an overseas aunt, sponsor corporation, or unknown third party. Have they been screened?
Major Donors & Foundations
Significant gifts flow into development accounts. Accepting money from sanctioned entities, regardless of donor intent, triggers OFAC enforcement.
Mid-Year Sanction Updates
A parent passes screening at enrollment in August, but is designated by OFAC in November. Your billing systems will process their January payment without hesitation.
The Missing Audit Trail
If an auditor asks for proof that you screened a specific family on the day you accepted their $60,000 tuition check three years ago, a payment receipt is not a defense.
