    In recent years, the nature of economic sanctions has evolved in its complexity – going beyond comprehensive, list-based or sectoral sanctions. Financial institutions have to keep pace with the continuous and evolving changes of the extra territoriality implications OR face penalties if the information is not accurate, timely or complete.

    In addition, the EU now defines sanctions circumvention and evasion as a criminal offense. Our upcoming in-person event in Geneva focuses on sanctions and provides an overview of the legal and regulatory landscape in Switzerland, data challenges and its impacts, as well as practical implications via case studies shared by sanctions practitioners.


    Join us and enjoy an interactive session with a panel of distinguished experts from the financial, legal and technology industries. After the session we welcome you to a networking Apéro where you can further share your thoughts and ideas with attendees and speakers.

     







    27-28 February 2024 😀 And that is a wrap up on the impact of AI!


      Thanks to the Economist Impact and speakers for the utmost instructive discussions on 27 and 27th February 2024 in HK


      👉 AI perceived as apocalypse due to the nature, fast pace/speed and scope of implementation


      👉 AI is still perceived by most of employees as a threat to job security


      👉 While 78% of the attendees thought that AI will change the way they operate, 10% thought it would not be the case and 12% were undecided


      I personally think that AI is a revolution but not an apocalypse and that it may benefit as a "co-pilot" to many industries and jobs (although, granted, the term co-pilot may sound limitating, but less threatening).


      Yes, AI may lead to some jobs disappearing, but!


      - This has been the case in the past with many inventions

      - This is a great opportunity to free up some time to focus on other tasks

      - This does not take away the accountability of people, especially in the decision-making process!
