Amid rising economic instability, deepening globalization, and escalating geopolitical tensions, sanctions law has taken on strategic importance for businesses, investors, and individuals alike. Sanctions imposed by the European Union (EU), United States (US), United Kingdom (UK), and other jurisdictions are aimed at restricting financial operations, international trade, and freezing the assets of both Russian and international companies and citizens.

These measures affect a wide range of sectors — from banking and cross-border contracts to personal investments. In such conditions, businesses and investors require in-depth legal expertise, professional guidance, and a precise understanding of sanctions regulations.

Who Is Affected by Sanctions: Risks and Consequences

Sanctions can impact:

• Legal entities (companies, banks, state institutions)

• Individuals

• Financial and investment instruments

• Brokers, depositories, and registrars

• Assets and settlement accounts

As a result, sanctions often lead to serious issues such as blocked funds and securities, contract terminations, refusal of service from partners, and inability to open or maintain foreign accounts. These challenges require a clear understanding of international sanctions regulations and a robust legal protection strategy.
