International Trade: Export Controls & Economic Sanctions: Highly Regarded

About

Provided by Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP

The Sanctions, Export Controls & Anti-Money Laundering practice group of Hughes Hubbard & Reed focuses on the full range of U.S. and European Union trade compliance, disclosures, enforcement actions, and authorizations involving the U.S. Commerce, State and Treasury Departments as well as the U.S. Department of Justice. We regularly advise U.S. and foreign companies on licensing, commodity jurisdiction and classification issues, compliance with regulations governing the transfer of technology to foreign nationals, compliance programs, disclosures, civil and criminal enforcement matters, and audits. We also provide advice on the extraterritorial impact of U.S. export controls on overseas business transactions, counsel clients on the U.S. antiboycott regulations, and provide advice on the intersection of export controls and classified information requirements in designing compliance programs. Our practice is handling some of the most challenging international trade control and sanctions matters amid U.S.-China tensions and Russia’s war in Ukraine. We steer multinational companies through the foreign investment review process conducted by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) and advise on compliance issues arising during the due diligence process in mergers and acquisitions.
