Update on Economic Sanctions
Doing Business with Iran, Libya and Syria... with Your Hands Tied
Brochure
June 2011
Companies conducting business globally are faced with dealing with economic sanctions. The scope of the sanctions differs per country. Interpretation of these sanctions requires great caution and also depends on the circumstances.
What do the economic sanctions of the EU and the United States against Iran, Libya and Syria mean for businesses? This was the main question addressed at the 'Update on economic sanctions' seminar organised by Baker & McKenzie on 24 May 2011. Europe has long-standing trading relationships with each of these countries, which makes application of the restrictions all the more relevant for your business.
Based on the most recent information we prepared a white paper to inform you about:
- The EU versus the United States
- Economic interests
- Companies' own responsibility
