US sanctions against Iran, Burma/Myanmar, Syria and other regimes continue to evolve, and with that, financial institutions and exporters across the globe face unprecedented US enforcement risks. Recent big ticket, multi-million dollar settlements have served as a stark reminder of the extra-territoriality of OFAC sanctions, and the heavy price tag for violations. This benchmarking and networking event will discuss highly complex issues affecting global financial, insurance and export transactions, and feature senior government officials, industry professionals and private practice leaders.
WilmerHale Senior Counsel Ronald Meltzer is a featured panelist at this event and will be participating in a panel titled "Re-Assessing Your Risk Tolerance for Processing Payment, Insurance and Export Transactions: A Step-by-Step Guide to Refining Your Internal Decision-Making Process in Response to Tightened US and EU Sanctions."
