How confident are you that your international company is not dealing with foreign entities that are the subject of economic sanctions? Corporate Securities expert Lenin E. Lopez guides you in developing/ enhancing your sanctions compliance program.

Join us on Wednesday 18th September for our upcoming webinar "Sanctions - Complying with international restrictions". Sanctions are ever-changing, and with many countries applying new sanctions laws on a regular basis, the topic is becoming impossible to avoid. Where many organisations hadn’t previously identified sanctions risks, or required sanctions training, these are now requirements that many need to satisfy. In this webinar, we will be reviewing the different types of sanctions, where they come from and their purpose. We’ll explore key issues such as sanctions on Iran and North Korea, financial sanctions on individuals, and how to ensure everyone in your organisation is aware of sanctions and how to comply. https://bit.ly/3Zj0DKx #Compliance #Sanctions
