In the current political climate, sanctions continue to create problems for ship owners, operators, charterers, financiers and insurers. The maze of UN, U.S., EU and UK sanctions impact historical commercial relationships with potentially (very) serious ramifications. In this session we take a closer look at the evolving sanctions regimes which impact all aspects of international trade and transport and areas of concerns for lawful businesses doing their best to comply and avoid civil penalties, criminal fines and designation by the Treasury Department to the OFAC SDN list.

This year, CMA Shipping is giving a platform to our soon-to-be best and brightest, the students currently enrolled in Maritime academic programs already on track to join on board or on shore, and those at the beginning of the journey, who are thinking about pursuing higher studies and who we hope will stay the course.
The CMA Maritime Student Task Force is an initiative which aims to connect Maritime professionals with high school, graduate and post-graduate students on site, during the three days of the event through project group work designed to facilitate the transfer of knowledge. To wrap it up, you will take part in a glorified Show and Tell on the CMA stage!
Students can register their interest here.
