SUMMARY:Panel 10:  Lawyers as enablers or gatekeepers? Planning the IBA’s
  work in the sphere of legal ethics and anti-corruption 
DESCRIPTION:It has been over ten years since the IBA last embarked on a d
 ata gathering exercise regarding the existence and effectiveness of anti
 -corruption and money laundering legislation on a global scale. In the m
 eantime\, discourse surrounding the role of lawyers as potential enabler
 s of illicit financial flows\, as well as their client’s ‘lawful but awf
 ul’ behaviour\, has only intensified.\n\nThe time has now come to embark
  on a connected series of projects: one designed to examine the evolutio
 n of lawyers’ perspectives on those regimes designed to combat the trans
 fer of illegal assets\, and the other questioning the existential issue 
 of the ethical role of lawyers in society. This session will involve a d
 iscussion of the IBA Legal Policy and Research Unit’s plans to revive th
 e IBA’s historic anti-corruption and money laundering surveys\, as well 
 as efforts to facilitate a new discussion concerning the role of lawyers
  as ethical gatekeepers in the aftermath of the Russian invasion of Ukra
 ine\, and the ongoing climate crisis.\n
