Global Investigations Review

As the United States increasingly enlists the private sector to achieve its geopolitical objectives, the legal and regulatory burdens that companies face--and the costs of noncompliance--rise dramatically. 

In this Global Investigations Review article, Eversheds Sutherland attorneys Michael Bahar, Neal Higgins, Patrick Gilman and Jeff Cottle discuss how companies should urgently recognize this trend in order to anticipate, mitigate and respond to these complicated and often cross-cutting requirements, including:

  • Export Controls
  • Sanctions
  • Investment Restrictions
  • Cybersecurity Reporting and Standards

Rather than operating with a "public-private partnership" mindset, companies need to understand how to navigate today's increasingly complex and punitive conscription model.
