AIMA APAC invites you to join our webinar on 15 January 2021.

An Executive Order 13959 issued by President Trump on 28 December will have a significant effect on investment funds in Asia which directly or indirectly have exposure to the sanctioned entities.

We will discuss the following in this webinar:

• The effect of the sanctions on Asian managers with US investors who have exposure to the sanctioned entities;
• The types of trades that are in scope;
• OFAC guidance to date and how the sanctions differ from other US sanctions regimes; and
• Hhow Asian managers might be able to continue to trade in sanctioned entities on behalf of non-US investors whilst still retaining their US investor base.
