Sanctions Preparedness Senior Leaders Roundtable

Sanctions Preparedness Senior Leaders Roundtable [Members Only]

As part of FINTRAIL and the FFE’s new programme of senior leaders events, we are hosting an invitation-only roundtable on sanctions preparedness. This roundtable discussion under Chatham House Rule, moderated by Emil Dall, Sanctions Lead at FINTRAIL will bring together a selected group of senior financial crime and sanctions leaders from the FinTech and financial industry.

In the FCA’s recent ‘Good and Bad Practice’ guidance on sanctions, it was highlighted that firms who had taken a proactive approach to identifying sanctions exposure to Russia were better placed to implement sanctions, and that the FCA considers sanctions planning key to responding successfully to future sanctions events. The FCA will be attending the first part of the roundtable to outline their expectations on this topic following their guidance issued in September (the FCA will leave the room for the industry-only roundtable that follows).

We believe it makes sense to do this as a FinTech industry group to:

  1. Identify common lessons learned from Russia sanctions

  2. Mapping out a common preparedness framework for future sanctions events
