Navigating the Competing Sanctions Regimes

Speaker

Instructor: Kenneth Barden
Product ID: 706612

Location
  • Duration: 60 Min
With BREXIT, the world now has at least three major authorities issuing sanctions and restrictive measures across the global financial system. In addition to OFAC sanctions issued by the US, and restrictive measures of the EU, the UK has its own regime that can impact international trade and financial flows. These are in addition to any sanctions that may be imposed by the United Nations and other national bodies. As the proliferation of these sanctions regimes continue, risks arise that entities conducting international transactions may run afoul of some of the restrictions, due to conflicting and sometimes opposing restrictions.

Why Should You Attend:

This webinar will look at some of the more common areas where there may be inconsistencies in regulations and offer some suggestions on how to prepare your firm to deal with and comply with these regimes in order to minimize potential violations.

You will receive useful background information on some of the major differences between the three sanctions regimes of the US (OFAC), the EU and the UK. In recent years due to policy differences among the EU, US, and the UK, approaches to sanctions against countries deemed to be contrary to those policies have arisen. Many of these differences can pose problems, particularly to businesses doing business in more than on of these jurisdictions. The webinar will explore how companies can fall into a trap of compliance wherein full compliance with one regime may cause problems in complying with a second regime.

Areas Covered in the Webinar:

  • The rationale behind the imposition of sanctions
  • How differences in foreign policy objectives have resulted in differences, often conflicting, among the three major sanction regimes
  • The EU “Blocking Statute”
  • Useful tips on avoiding problems with compliance
