School of International Financial Services (SIFS) is delighted to bring you this session with Alex Melia of Steptoe LLP.

Following the coming into force of OFSI's updated Monetary Penalties for Breaches of Financial Sanctions Guidance on 1 April 2021, Alex's seminar will evaluate the key changes to the guidance and the impact of those changes on OFSI's approach to the assessment of potential breaches of UK financial sanctions.

> Key changes to guidance on:
- Jurisdiction
- Case assessment
- Legal professional privilege
- Self-reporting
- Penalties
> Possible implications for future OFSI investigations
> Enforcement trends – Does the new guidance represent a toughening of OFSI's enforcement stance?
