Financial Law Conference #4
A Plethora of Sanctions Regimes
Tuesday, 21 May 2024
10 AM – 5 PM with business lunch
Park Hyatt, Zurich
The sanctions against Russia have come to stay. The European Union, for example, has just adopted its 13th sanctions package. Other jurisdictions will undoubtedly follow.
The conference will focus on the plethora of sanctions regimes, their marked differences and the practical difficulties that arise from this multiplicity (legal professions, client representation, banking).
