7962. International Trade Compliance

This course examines the growing field of international trade compliance law and investigations. The course will introduce students to the fundamentals of international trade compliance law, including complex U.S. regulations controlling exports and imports of commercial and military commodities and associated data; U.S. anti-boycott laws; U.S. sanctions regimes restricting transactions with specific countries and individuals; and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The course will also provide a primer on conducting internal investigations into violations of these legal regimes, and disclosing the findings of such investigations to government agencies, whether voluntarily or in response to directed inquiries from enforcement agencies.
