11th Annual Advanced Forum on Economic Sanctions Enforcement and Compliance 2018 | American Conference Institute | 25 April 2018 | The Westin Washington, DC City Center, 1400 M St NW, Washington, DC 20005, USA

Economic Sanctions restrictions continue to evolve and staying informed has never been more critical.

The 11th Annual Advanced Forum on Economic Sanctions Enforcement and Compliance is widely regarded as the flagship event for senior executives and practitioners, who work in the areas of global sanctions compliance, internal audits and investigations, international trade, banking, insurance, forensic accounting and white collar crime. This conference routinely features senior government representatives from OFAC, Department of Justice, Federal Reserve, US Department of Commerce, FDIC and Department of State, and is widely regarded as the best event of the year because of the high level content and valuable networking.
