Event Summary
Trade compliance is becoming more complex as the economic sanctions regime continuously evolves. Emerging changes are drastically affecting various aspects of international trade such as imports, exports, foreign investments, and oil prices. Recently, Canada has introduced new legislation to include definitions of ownership and control and introduced new rules for seizing and forfeiting assets of Russian nationals, thereby pushing the boundaries of international sanctions law.
In addition, firms should be aware of the increasing frequency of US sanctions resulting from the Ukraine conflict and other global policy shifts and improve their understanding of sanctioned entities’ strategies to circumvent such sanctions. Furthermore, it is crucial for firms to acknowledge the significant emphasis placed by US Customs and Border Protection on enforcing sanctions against forced labor goods and tackling the evasion of trade measures.
Join two thought leaders and distinguished experts in this session organized by The Knowledge Group as they provide a comprehensive discussion of the latest regulatory trends and developments surrounding economic sanctions. Speakers, among other things, will offer practical tips and strategies to successfully navigate this evolving legal landscape.
Key topics include:
- Economic Sanctions Regime: Latest Trends and Developments
- Understanding the Implications of Canada’s new Ownership and Control Amendments
- Identifying the Current Trade Compliance Hurdles
- Practical Tips and Compliance Strategies
- What Lies Ahead
