I am presenting a Clear Law Institute (CLI) webinar titled, “Hot Topics in U.S. Sanctions.” The United States continues to use economic sanctions and embargoes to limit trade with countries, entities, and individuals that are deemed to pose a threat to U.S. national security. Yet the sanctions maintained by the U.S. government can change quickly.

In this webinar, you will learn more about the current landscape, including possible business opportunities that are available in countries subject to U.S. sanctions. In particular, you will learn about:

  • The Primary U.S. sanctions laws and regulations
  • Penalties and recent sanctions enforcement action
  • Key compliance challenges, such as Specially Designated Nationals, facilitation and the export of services, and the fluidity of current sanctions on Cuba, Iran, Russia and Venezuela
  • Compliance best practices to prevent and detect violations

The webinar will be held on Tuesday, December 12 from 1:00 p.m. – 2:15 p.m. EST. This webinar has been approved for 1.25 hours of general Tennessee CLE credit. For more information and registration, visit the CLI website.
