Control Risks, Vesterbrogade 149, Copenhagen , Copenhagen , 1620, Denmark.

We are very proud to announce our next ACSS Denmark Chapter event, hosted by Control Risks in Copenhagen.

Join us as capital investors, banks and insurers provide unique perspectives on sanctions risk in the context of equity investment, loan facilities and insurance coverage. Equity and debt investors as well as insurers of all industries have high expectations that those in whom they invest and insure strictly comply with sanctions as violations undermine their vested interests. Our speakers will explore the particular sanctions risks related to their engagement with client business and discuss expectations for sanctions compliance. Whether you are a compliance professional from a bank, investor or insurer or work in an industry where banks, investors and insurers hold an interest, this event will be a fantastic opportunity to learn more about this important subject.

Don't miss it!
