Heute im Podcast im Rahmen unseres Jahresrückblicks 2024 die TOP
3-Episode des Jahres. In this podcast episode, Dr Rosinus welcomes
Maya Lester and Michael O’Kane. Together, they talk about sanction
law. They begin by outlining the general EU, UK, and US sanctions
regimes, highlighting their similarities and differences. Mr O’Kane
then explains the applicability of UK sanctions and Mrs Lester
addresses the influence of post-Brexit case law by the European
Court of Justice (ECJ) in the UK. Further, they provide an overview
of the enforcement of UK sanctions, illustrating this with
exemplary cases of non-compliance. They explain how the EU and UK
sanctions regimes determine whether a company asset is owned by a
person on a sanctions list. Following this, they discuss the impact
of sanctions, particularly regarding Russia, on the London legal
market and explain how legal advice can be provided to individuals
on sanctions lists. Further, the guests outline relevant court
cases. Finally, Mrs Lester and Mr O’Kane present their joint
