EU, UK and US Sanctions: Current Implications for Global Business and Planning for What’s Next

About This Video

Debevoise invites you to a seminar exploring the current impact on global business of sanctions adopted by EU, UK and US authorities in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and the longer term implications of these swift, forceful and, importantly, coordinated measures. EU, UK and US authorities now maintain sanctions programs that regularly target persons for alleged involvement in corruption, human rights abuses, money laundering and similar activities and, with growing calls to limit authoritarian states’ access to western technology and finance, additional sanctions and related restrictions (such as US secondary sanctions) in these areas are highly likely. More drastically, tensions have escalated sharply in Asia in recent months, and any security developments involving China could see stringent sanctions against the world’s largest supplier of goods and mandates for wind-downs of business. Debevoise’s global team of sanctions advisors looks to discuss lessons learned from the rapid expansion of sanctions against Russia, and emerging best practices in the light of an increasingly turbulent sanctions environment.
