7 World Trade Center | 250 Greenwich Street, 52nd Floor | New York, NY 10006

Join us for an in-person discussion hosted by Moody’s on the rapidly evolving global sanctions environment.

Sanctions continue to play a central role in geopolitical strategy, economic policy, and financial regulation. Governments are increasingly targeting complex networks, intermediaries, and supply chains, while enforcement authorities continue to pursue high-profile cases across multiple industries.

This timely discussion will bring together a panel of industry experts to explore the latest developments shaping the global sanctions landscape.

The panel will discuss:

  • Recent enforcement actions and regulatory priorities
  • Key geopolitical developments influencing sanctions policy
  • Emerging sanctions evasion typologies
  • Practical compliance challenges and best practices

The conversation will cover several key programs and jurisdictions currently driving sanctions risk and compliance priorities, including:

  • Iran
  • Venezuela
  • Russia
  • Cuba
  • China

Panelists will provide practical insights on how financial institutions and multinational organizations can navigate the increasing complexity of sanctions regulation while managing operational and compliance risk. This session will offer a valuable opportunity to hear directly from practitioners and engage with members of the New York sanctions and compliance community. We hope you will join us for what promises to be a timely and engaging discussion.
