Overview
Shortly after Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, U.S. Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco called U.S. sanctions “the new Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.” The gist of her public message was that the U.S. government was ready to ensure the same high level of enforcement of its sanctions regulations as it had done for the FCPA since the 2000s. Three years into the Russia-Ukraine war, a growing number of regulatory compliance practitioners view export controls as the new sanctions, thanks to a raft of new regulations, shifting policy priorities and vigorous ongoing enforcement. This webinar is the first in a three-episode Strategic Trade and Export Control series. It will serve as an introduction, as of early 2025, to the constantly changing and increasingly complex regulatory landscape.
