Background

Sanctions have long been a key legal instrument used to advance US foreign policy objectives. The war in Ukraine has resulted in the EU also prioritizing sanctions. Increased geopolitical tensions beyond Russia signal that sanctions compliance is more acute than ever for companies engaged in international trade across all sectors, for example transport companies and financial institutions.

This course will equip you with the fundamental knowledge and tools necessary to identify and mitigate sanctions risks in your business. The goal is to build on your existing knowledge of EU and US sanctions so that you can adopt practical, risk-based measures to advance sanctions compliance in your organization. The course is open for everyone, but is tailored for those with some prior experience in sanctions. The related subjects of dual use and arms-related export controls will also be addressed.

The course is two full days, which will include focus on both the US and EU legal foundations of sanctions and export controls.
