About this webinar

In recent guidance as well as enforcement actions totaling hundreds of millions of dollars, OFAC has emphasized “look[ing] beyond legal formalities to underlying practical and economic realities.” The guidance and enforcement cases shine a light on the role of so-called “gatekeepers,” such as accountants, attorneys, investment advisors, and trust and corporate formation providers.

OFAC’s Lawrence Scheinert will sit down with Kharon’s Howard Mendelsohn to discuss OFAC’s recent Guidance on Sham Transactions and Sanctions Evasion, enforcement actions against “gatekeepers,” and the increasing convergence of AML and sanctions.
