MEDIATION IN CASE OF VIOLATION OF SANCTIONS

Over the past decade, financial and economic sanctions have significantly expanded and become much more complex and sanctions violations may occur even when a company or financial institution operates in a non-sanctioned jurisdiction (e.g., China) or engages in transactions with non-sanctioned persons.  Any company or financial institution may inadvertently violate sanctions, and the ignorance of law does not exempt it from liability for sanctions violations.

Voluntary disclosure of the violation and proper cooperation with the sanctions administering authorities (e.g., OFAC, OFSI) may substantially reduce the penalty imposed on a company or financial institution.
