Navigating the Law: Economic Sanctions and Export Controls Handbook
Expanded sanctions and export control regimes have re-emerged as a key component of U.S. national security and foreign policy reflecting a current era of increased global interconnectedness and federal regulators promising “big-ticket” enforcement actions. Federal agencies have recently begun imposing sanctions and export controls of unprecedented scope and scale, and the U.S. Department of Justice is actively prosecuting those entities and individuals who violate the same. Therefore, U.S. and multinational companies must be vigilant in their compliance efforts.
Our latest eBook provides the economic sanctions and export controls basics, including the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). Navigating the Law: Economic Sanctions and Export Controls Handbook shares U.S. sanctions regimes, potential penalties for non-compliance with EAR and ITAR, and recent enforcement actions, among other important related matters.
For individuals and entities doing business in this new era of expanded sanctions and controls administered by the OFAC, having a team of experienced lawyers is a necessity to fully comply with the nuances of the various laws and outlined in this handbook. Buchanan Ingersoll and Rooney’s team of National Security attorneys are intimately familiar with these regimes and remain abreast of the latest developments and DOJ enforcement actions. Our attorneys routinely counsel and advise clients in relation to OFAC, BIS, and ITAR licenses, requests for advisory opinions, record keeping requirements, audits, compliance training, voluntary disclosures, and potential enforcement actions.
