Description
As global sanctions regimes become increasingly complex, the panel will explore emerging trends, challenges, and strategies to detect and prevent sanctions evasion tactics, with a particular focus on parallels and overlaps with money-laundering. With a focus on the still-developing nature and an uneven playing field in global sanctions enforcement, participants will discuss the importance of international cooperation, the need for agile enforcement mechanisms and best practices for companies.
