Sandpiper - National Security, Sanctions, and Export Controls

The Biden Administration is “all in” on using sanctions, export controls, investment restrictions (inbound and outbound) to protect U.S. national security and interests in a dynamic and challenging geopolitical environment. Join us in New York on October 11 for a timely seminar featuring review and discussion of these developments by government speakers, legal experts from top law firms, corporate counsel, and advisors. The program is structured to ensure you will receive a comprehensive look at developments and key trends in U.S. national security and the impact on businesses, as well as expert analyses from our panelists. Topics that will be covered include:

• Government priorities discussed by four key regulators and prosecutors from OFAC, U.S. Treasury; U.S. Attorney’s Office, S.D.N.Y.; FBI; and Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), U.S. Department of Commerce
• Risk mitigation, cooperation, and compliance in sanctions, export controls and investments
• Review and discussion of inbound and outbound foreign investment controls, including the Executive Order issued in August on a new outbound investment review compliance process for certain technology sectors
• New guidance on Voluntary Self-Disclosure from the Department of Justice, BIS, Department of Commerce, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office
• Leading best practices for compliance programs on sanctions, export controls, and investment controls; internal investigations; and risk mitigation and management practices
• Considerations for deal-making, including investment and M&A diligence; regulatory compliance; and post-deal compliance mitigation
