Overview: 

U.S. exporters are not only required to understand complex licensing requirements regarding the goods they sell, they must adhere to U.S. sanctions against "enemy" countries (foreign assets control regulations) and refuse to comply with sanctions imposed by other countries (anti-boycott regulations).

This session educates participants on the regulations governing the actions of banks when handling international payments and explores what banks are required to do and not to do, with a particular focus on the impact on the exporter and their payment for goods. 

Why should you Attend:

  • Understand the difference between international rules, domestic laws & regulations, and international conventions and when they apply
  • Learn under what circumstances payment from a foreign buyer could get frozen by the U.S. government and deemed "trading with the enemy"
  • Understand what makes a transaction reportable or prohibited under the anti-boycott regulations
  • Review how the USA PATRIOT Act applies to trade transactions and information banks actually need in order to satisfy "Know-Your-Customer" requirements

Areas Covered in the Session:
  • Sanctions against "enemy" countries (e.g., the Office of Foreign Assets Control and U.N. sanctions)
  • Antiboycott regulations
  • Anti-Money Laundering regulations (e.g., the USA PATRIOT Act)

Who Will Benefit:
