Event Summary

A great deal has happened globally since last year’s Summit. In particular, the incoming Trump administration is likely to herald a significant shift in US foreign policy towards Russia, China and the Middle East. The ramifications of this will be felt globally and will impact financial institutions and corporates in multiple jurisdictions. Of course, the UK also has a new Government with a potentially different agenda and there are elections across the EU which may influence the European approach to Russia.

The current conflicts and instability in the Middle East have exacerbated an already volatile geopolitical landscape. The sanctions imposed against Russian banks, companies, oligarchs and other entities whose association with Putin is potentially helping to fund the conflict in Ukraine were amongst the most draconian ever imposed. But have they worked? And what lessons have been learned for other potential conflicts in China and the Middle East?

These are some of the key themes to be addressed at the Summit which will feature a stellar speaker panel of leading Government and regulatory bodies from the UK, EU and US. At an industry level, the speaker panel will comprise leading sanctions and financial crime specialists who will examine how the imposition of sanctions, and the corresponding freezing of assets, will affect financial institutions and other global organisations in a rapidly changing geopolitical landscape.
