Description: | This training on trade compliance will provide the attendees best practices for performing due diligence reviews relative to both import and export laws and regulations to avoid fines and penalties. Why Should You Attend: If your company is contemplating a merger, acquisition or any other business activities with international implications you must be mindful of United States import and export laws and regulations. Even the mere purchase of assets of another corporation may lead to the acquisition of significant trade related risks and liability. Violations of US import regulations and export controls can lead to severe fines and penalties. Under the doctrine of successor liability, the successors of an acquired company may be held liable for that company’s import or export violations even if they occurred prior to the acquisition. Similarly, if a company acquires another company with compliance problems and these problems continue even after the acquisition, the continuing operation can create new and independent liability on the part of the successor company. Further, in the past few years the U.S. Government has increased its scrutiny and sometimes prevented proposed business combinations potentially affecting "national security." As a result, it is essential that the acquiring company conduct a thorough due diligence review and identify any possible issues including: import, export, deemed exports, FCPA, or anti-boycott issues. This webinar will provide detailed information on conducting a due diligence review.
