Coping with U.S. Export
Controls and Sanctions 2014
Why You Should Attend
Export controls and economic sanctions continue to change rapidly. It is more important than ever
for institutions in all sectors of the economy to stay on top of developments in the United States and
other countries. Companies and financial institutions must be aware of their compliance and disclosure
obligations, enforcement trends and priorities, and emerging risks. Implementing and strengthening
compliance programs is an increasingly important priority in all industries. For over twenty years,
PLI’s Coping with U.S. Export Controls has been the go-to program on trade control laws and
regulations. The program enables attendees to “get inside” international trade controls through
give-and-take among key officials from the government agencies that regulate cross-border trade
and investment, experienced company managers and top lawyers in the field.
What You Will Learn
• Export control reform: Scope, status and implementation at the Departments of Commerce,
State and Defense
• Economic sanctions: Russia/Ukraine, Iran, Syria, Sudan, Burma and Cuba
• Short-supply controls and oil exports
• Retaliatory/secondary sanctions as a foreign policy tool
• Requirements and best practices for SEC Iran disclosures
• Cloud computing and data management
• Sanctions developments in the EU and other countries
• Enforcement and voluntary disclosures: Penalties and enforcement policies
• Lessons from recent cases
• Compliance programs: How to design and implement an effective and efficient system
• Ethics issues for international trade control practitioners
Who Should Attend
Attorneys from law firms and law departments; counsel and managers from companies selling
consumer, high-tech, and defense products; and from banks, carriers, and trade logistics firms.
