Webinar - OFAC Enforcement Actions on the Rise: Effective Ways to Strengthen Your Compliance Programs

Tue. February 09, 2016 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm !

Sanctions offenses against the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) carry civil and criminal liabilities, with a single business trade or deal potentially resulting in multiple violations and hefty fines.

In just a few years, civil penalties and settlements have grown from several millions of dollars to billions of dollars. Despite OFAC’s increasing enforcement actions, many businesses remain in the dark, putting OFAC compliance to the top of the agendas of boards and senior executives.

In this two-hour LIVE Webcast, a panel of key thought leaders and OFAC compliance specialists will share their insights on high-profile cases involving OFAC, provide guidance on recent enforcement actions, and share their thoughts and experiences on how to effectively Strengthen Your Compliance Programs.

AGENDA:
• trends and developments in OFAC sanctions enforcement in 2016
• risk assessment and compliance procedures on anti-corruption and sanctions laws
• best practices for complying with OFAC sanction laws
• key compliance issues and risks in international markets
• compliance issues on SDN lists
