Description
The “fog of war” normally refers to uncertainties about the current situation by those involved in military operations. For economic sanctions professionals, the recent blitz of Russian sanctions-related announcements, the punditry of those gauging their likely impact, and the guessing as to next steps and likely reactions, has left many of us with the same sense of shell shock. Today’s presentation will bring the bigger picture into sharper focus, separating out the geopolitically important measures from the everyday actions – and provide a map of the compliance battles to come.
