Sanctions impose financial and economic restrictions on a range of business activities and dealings with certain companies, groups and individuals. The rapid imposition and constantly evolving nature of sanctions can cause increased compliance costs, impact operational efficiency, and create significant risk in international transactions.
Corrs has an expert team of lawyers with domestic and international experience advising on Australian sanctions laws, compliance and regulatory exposure. This experience includes advising on the application of Australian sanctions and export control laws to specific transactions, conducting sanctions risk assessments, assisting clients with permit applications, preparing or updating sanctions compliance programs and due diligence on corporate transactions. We also have experience in sanctions-related litigation and engagement with the Australian Sanctions Office and Defence Export Controls.
In addition to our in-house experience, Corrs works closely with a network of international firms to provide global perspectives and advice on international sanctions and export control laws, and to help clients navigate sanctions laws across international borders.
