Welcome

Since last year’s WorldECR Forum, the world has seen a possible easing inrelations between Iran and the West, the ‘accession’ of the Crimean Peninsula by

Russia, and the publication of more chapters in the U.S. Export Control ReformInitiative, with significant repercussions for businesses around the globe. It all goesto show that nothing stays static in the field of export controls and sanctions.

Thus, it is amidst an uncertain and changing world that we’re extending to you ourinvitation to attend the the 2014 WorldECR Export Controls and Sanctions Forum.And of one thing you can be assured, we’re bringing together a line-up of speakersand panellists of the very highest order – representatives from government, themultilateral community, private legal practice and business – for two days ofpresentations, panels and discussion.

Topics under discussion will range from product classification in the light of the U.S.ECR, developments within the Wassenaar Arrangement, the possible shape of areformed EU dual-use export controls regime, through European sanctions law,Asian export controls, issues in the supply chain, best practice on EU voluntarydisclosure, rules on encrypted products and ‘the Cloud’, advice on how to structureand skill an export controls compliance function, and much more...

Getting to know fellow professionalsDuring the two days of the Forum, there will be ample opportunities to make newcontacts with fellow professionals, including coffee breaks and lunch on both days,plus a drinks reception at the end of day 1, kindly sponsored by leading internationallaw firm Fried Frank, all on site at this excellent venue.

Just as we did last year, we will be organising an optional dinner on the firstevening of the Forum, to follow the drinks reception. This will be a relaxed andinformal dinner for speakers, panellists and delegates who are staying over in town,held in a local restaurant. It is optional – there is an additional charge – but it shouldprove a fun end to the day and, again, a great opportunity to build new contacts.

Key dates and offersPlease allow me to draw your attention to the following promotions:

l If you register by 20 September you can save £200.

l Additional delegates from the same organisation can save an additional £100.

I hope you will join us this October.

2014 Speakers and their Sessions

Ambassador Philip Griffiths – The Wassenaar Arrangement:developments and next steps The Wassenaar Arrangement (‘WA’) is the multilateral regime responsible formaintaining the lists of dual-use technologies and munitions upon which the lists ofrestricted goods used by both the WA’s 41 members and the European Union aresubstantially based.

Ambassador Philip Griffiths, who heads the Wassenaar Secretariat, will bediscussing the work of the Arrangement, outlining recent developments, includingthe inclusion of surveillance and law enforcement technologies on its lists, andexplaining the criteria upon which the WA makes its decisions as to whichtechnologies to include or withdraw from those lists.

Prior to his appointment to the position of head of the WA Secretariat in 2012,Philip Griffiths was New Zealand Ambassador and Permanent Representative toAustria. He has also had assignments in Poland, Japan, Iran and Germany.

Mark Fitzpatrick – Staying ahead in a changing world A resurgence of region-unsettling violence in Iraq, increased tension across East Asiaand a re-adjustment of the relationship between Russia, the European Union and theUnited States – each individually (and collectively) alters the dynamics of non-proliferation agendas, priorities and strategies – in addition to posing new legislativeand operational restraints for business.

In his presentation, Mark Fitzpatrick, director of the Non-Proliferation andDisarmament Programme at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, willgive delegates a top-level view of global threats in 2015 and beyond, and explain howthey are likely to impact on policy decisions that in turn determine the parameters ofbusinesses’ global activities.

Mark is a founding member of the EU Non-Proliferation Consortium. He is also amember of: the World Economic Forum Global Agenda Council on Nuclear,Biological and Chemical Weapons; the International Advisory Board of theCanberra-based Centre for Nuclear Non-proliferation and Disarmament; and thePolicy Advisory Group of the United Nations Association of the UK.

Mario Mancuso – Trade security and the convergence ofexport controls, sanctions, CFIUS and AML It is time, trade lawyers say, to ‘unbundle’ the perception of export controls andsanctions practice and to recognise the overlap with other areas of trade complianceincluding FCPA, UK Bribery Act, CFIUS and AML. In his presentation, the Hon.Mario Mancuso will describe how, while each of these is a discrete regulatory regime,they ultimately emanate from the same national security or foreign policy concernsand demand a joined-up response from the compliance function.

The Hon. Mario Mancuso is a former senior member of the President’s nationalsecurity and economic leadership teams and now a partner at the DC office of lawfirm Fried, Frank, Harris & Shriver. During his tenure as Under Secretary ofCommerce for Industry and Security, he played a pivotal role in key areas andinitiatives, including the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States(CFIUS), economic sanctions, export controls, and critical technology and criticalinfrastructure policy. Mario is well placed to share his insights into the convergenceof compliance regimes and their common drivers and broader collective impact.

2014 Speakers and their Sessions

Fabienne Vermeeren – The EU dual-use export controlregime of tomorrow What could the EU dual-use export control regime look like in 2015 and beyond?Among the proposals advanced by the European Commission are a focus on‘smarter’ controls, the enhanced and improved exchange of information andintelligence between the authorities, a swifter reaction to emerging technologies, de-listing of items which are commercially widely available and more focus oncontrols of intangible transfers.

Will reform reduce the burden on business or bring about the elusive yetdesirable ‘level playing-field’ for EU Member States? And will change increase thecompetitiveness of EU businesses in a global context?

In her presentation Fabienne Vermeeren explores these issues, introducingdelegates to the changes in the regime that may yet be on the cards.

Fabienne is a Director at the Brussels office of White & Case where she specialisesin advising multinational corporations, trade associations and sovereign clients onEU trade and customs matters – routinely working on EU export control matters andsanctions regimes and their enforcement and licence application procedures atMember State level.

Marian Niestedt – EU Sanctions: What’s new and who isaffected?2014 has seen some significant changes in the landscape of EU restrictive measures– with a shift in the Iran sanctions to accompany the Joint Plan of Action (‘JPOA’)and a hitherto unprecedented regime targeting Russian and Ukrainian entitiesregarded by the EU as responsible for or encouraging human rights violations inUkraine, the annexation of Crimea and secessionist tendencies in Ukraine’s East.

In his presentation, Marian Niestedt of the Hamburg office of Graf vonWestphalen takes stock of these remarkably altered contours, fleshes out some of theinterpretative issues that have emerged and assesses the commensurate impact onbusiness.

Marian will also address issues around the extra-territorial application of EUrestrictive measures creating risks for activities outside the EU.

Les Carnegie – U.S. sanctions and export controls againstRussiaLes Carnegie, a partner at the DC office of international law firm Latham & Watkinsand co-head of its Export Controls, Economic Sanctions & Customs Practice, will begiving an overview of the steps the United States government has taken in responseto the political crisis in Ukraine and surrounding events.

Les will provide a user-friendly analysis of the measures taken by key U.S.agencies, including the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), theBureau of Industry and Security (BIS), and the State Department’s Directorate ofDefense Trade Controls (DDTC).

He will be highlighting the impact of the sanctions and export controls on keyindustries, including energy, banking and military, and underscoring some of theconsequences of these actions for EU businesses.

Kevin Cuddy – Developing and implementing a restrictedparty screening programme Art or science? Despite the abundance of available screening software programmeson the market today, screening for restricted parties remains a complex and multi-layered business and demands a human touch if it is to be undertaken sensitivelyand accurately.

In his presentation, Kevin Cuddy, export controls manager at GE Corporate, willbe discussing the finer points of:

l Tailoring restricted party screening to a business’s risk profilel Determining who to screen, when to screen and how to screenl Choosing a third-party software tool for conducting restricted party screeningl Documenting the results of the screening and implementing self-audits of your

restricted party screening process

Kevin will also be discussing the possibility of conflicts with privacy/dataprotection laws and how they can be managed.

Ensuring compliance in the supply chain – Panel Discussion Ensuring compliance within one’s own company is only half the picture. Ensuringmeaningful compliance increasingly entails taking an extended view of supplychains, including the roles and responsibilities of freight forwarders, transhipmentcentres and carriers.

2014 Speakers and their Sessions

George Tan – Update on Asia’s export controlsUntil recently, the export controls of many Asian nations were widely regarded aslacking rigour and sophistication. That’s changing, with governments in the regionresponding to increasing pressure to step up both the quality of export controllegislation and enforcement.

Indeed, 2014 has proved to be an exciting year for export control development inthe Asia Pacific region. The Philippines has filed its Strategic Trade Management Act(STMA) at the Senate and House of Representatives while the export control regimesof Singapore and Malaysia have also undergone changes to maintain relevance inlight of recent advances in technology. There have also been changes in Hong Kongand Singapore – with new legislation on the cards for Thailand and Indonesia.WorldECR editorial board member George Tan, of Singapore consultancy Global

Trade Security Consulting, will be helping delegates understand and navigate thechanging picture of export controls in the region – with an update on recentdevelopments, and an outline of what’s in store.

If your company sources, manufactures or supplies product in or from Asia, thispresentation is a must-attend.

Kim Strosnider – Export control issues encountered doingbusiness with China Western companies remain keenly interested in the Chinese market and manyChinese companies evince a similar interest in Western markets. In this session,Covington & Burling partner Kim Strosnider will explore:

l U.S. export control restrictions on doing business with China, and the impact onthese requirements of Export Control Reform

l End use controls of special relevance to trade with Chinese entities and personsl Restrictions on Chinese foreign investment in U.S. companies active in the

defence and aerospace sectorsl Major U.S. export enforcement cases that illustrate the ongoing enforcement

concerns with U.S.-China tradel Compliance tips and suggestions for trade with China

Kim will also be looking at some of the issues particularly pertinent to EUcompanies in their dealings with China.

Daniel Reisner – Understanding the Israeli export controlregime Israel is a major trading partner with both the EU and the United States and aleading producer of hi-tech and sophisticated engineering equipment. And yet itsexport control laws are not that well understood.

Daniel Reisner, partner at the law firm Herzog Fox & Neeman, will begin bypresenting a ‘beginners-guide’ to Israel’s export control regimes before going on tooutline why they are so challenging in comparison to others. He will also address themethods adopted by Israeli industry to cope with these controls, including the recenttrend of ‘regulatory structuring’ (establishing defence and homeland securitycompanies in other jurisdictions to avoid onerous regulations).

Until 2004, Daniel Reisner served for almost 10 years as the head of internationallaw for the Israeli military. In parallel to his private practice, he has for the past twodecades served as a senior member of the Israeli peace negotiation teams withIsrael's Arab neighbouring countries, serving in the triple role of negotiator, drafterand legal adviser.

Ross Denton – The ‘when, whether and how’ of voluntary disclosure inthe European UnionWhen, how, and whether to ‘open the kimono’ or undertake a voluntary disclosure ofexport control violations is a vexed subject – and no strict rules apply. In the U.S.,the concept is well established and the path to self-disclosure well-trod. But thesituation is different in the European Union, where – against a background ofincreasingly aggressive enforcement – the practice and procedure of voluntarydisclosure for sanctions and export control violations are only beginning to becomeestablished as a part of the lexicon of compliance.

In his presentation, Baker & McKenzie partner Ross Denton discusses howviolations emerge; the difference between serious and more minor violations andtheir respective treatment; and the steps that companies should take to prepare fordisclosure including undertaking audits.

Ross will also outline what steps companies can expect once disclosure has beenmade, and discuss possible penalties in the United Kingdom, while explaining thatthere is no ‘one size fits all’ in the European Union, where not all regulators areequally well versed in or responsive to the practice.

Product classification issues at a time of export controlsreform and emerging technologies – Panel Discussion Classifying items in a multi-jurisdictional context is not easy at the best of times. Butwith reform in the U.S. and Europe the challenge for many companies is greater thanever. Items transitioning from the USML to CCL in the U.S. and the issuance of newlicence exceptions, for example, require increased vigilance, while emergingtechnologies can present genuinely novel problems. Nick Boland leads a paneldiscussion with Sandra Strong and Fredrik Hallgren on best practice in productclassification, formulating solid classification strategies, identifying red flags topotential violations, and responding to errors.

Nick Boland joined Amber Road in 2007 and is based in the UK office where heleads the European solutions team.

Joseph Gustavus – Sharing sensitive technologies betweeninternational affiliates In the normal course of operations between U.S. and non-U.S. affiliates, inter-company communications and data conveyances are frequent and occur bothintentionally and inadvertently.

The U.S.-foreign affiliation can be in the form of a parent company on one end,and a wholly-owned subsidiary, joint venture, minority interest or other inter-company affiliation, on the other. When sensitive technologies are involved in theseinter-company exchanges, U.S. export control laws likely apply to the controlledtechnology transfer and export control law violations can occur.

Using practical examples, Joseph Gustavus, partner in the Troy office of MillerCanfield, examines such exchanges, detailing the controlling regulations andproviding hands-on guidance for those involved in the sharing of informationbetween affiliates.

2014 Speakers and their Sessions

Curtis Dombek – Encryption controls, cybersecurity and the Cloud

Many compliance professionals and lawyers blanch at the thought of getting to gripswith rules regarding encryption. Compounding matters, fluency in both EU and U.S.regimes is increasingly a prerequisite of a holistic understanding in this ever-topicalarea.

In his presentation, Sheppard Mullin’s Curtis Dombek will be comparing the EUand U.S. systems, explaining, inter alia, the differences in their classification andlicensing requirements, U.S. encryption licence exceptions compared to EU generallicences, and recent Wassenaar developments relevant to encryption. Curtis will alsobe discussing the encryption issues that arise in the use of ‘The Cloud’.

Dividing his time between his firm’s Brussels and Los Angeles offices, Curtis, whowas appointed in 2012 to the Regulations and Procedures Technical AdvisoryCommittee of the Department of Commerce, with responsibility for reviewing andadvising the Department on new export control regulations, is eminently qualified togive a transatlantic overview.

Dynda Thomas – Conflict minerals regulations updateIn her presentation, Squire Patton Boggs partner Dynda Thomas will be briefingdelegates on the current state of play regarding conflict minerals regulation, supplychain transparency and responsible sourcing. She will be summarizing latestdevelopments regarding the U.S. conflict minerals rule, including recent legalchallenges to the rule, analysis of the first reports filed with the US SEC, and looking atthe appearance of sanctioned countries in U.S. conflict minerals reports.

Dynda will also be looking at the EU conflict minerals rule and other supply chainregulations, including forced labour and human trafficking, and assessing the impactof President Obama’s Executive Order No. 13671, of July 2014 (on the confluence ofsupply chain transparency requirements and economic sanctions).

Julien Ernoult – Combating proliferation finance: the role of thebanking sector

Money laundering, transnational crime, international terrorism and its financing,and WMD proliferation threaten the legal and democratic order on which thepolitical, social and economic stability of states is based.

The United Nations, European Union and other multilateral organisations haveput in place numerous regulations for combating proliferators’ efforts to obtain thefinance for their schemes. As the rules have tightened, the banking sector hasgradually been entrusted with investigative functions and responsibilities that wereformerly the prerogative of police and other authorities. Julien Ernoult examines thepatchwork of mechanisms and asks: Has the right balance been struck between theresponsibilities of state and private sector?

Julien is Department Director, Public Financing Policies and Compliance, at theEuropean Association of Public Banks in Brussels, where he works on European andinternational regulation relating to anti-money laundering, counter-terrorismfinancing and financial sanctions.

Iain Macvay – Iran post-JPOA: Sunset or status quo?The Joint Plan of Action agreed between the P5+1 and Iran took effect at thebeginning of 2014 and expires in late July. But what comes next? Will the partiesreach a comprehensive deal in accordance with the ‘nothing’s agreed ‘til it’s allagreed’ principle? Will they, in the face of the challenge of negotiating the many andvaried technical issues involved, agree to extend the interim period? Or will the talkscollapse beneath the weight of too-high expectations and unsurmountabledifferences?

However the ground looks at the conference time, King & Spalding partner IainMacvay will talk delegates through the repercussions of the Iran sanctions landscape.Iain will also talk generally about what happens when sanctions regimes are wounddown – often less than neatly – drawing on recent examples, including the legacy ofEU sanctions against Libya.

Paul Whitfield-Jones and Jason Hungerford –Understanding your obligations under U.S. deemed reexportlawNon-U.S. companies working with U.S.-origin goods or information know that theymust navigate their way through a panoply of U.S. export control regulations if theywant to ship them abroad or even within the same country. Obtaining licences,screening for denied parties, labelling shipments, and recordkeeping are a key part ofthat.

You might consider that, at least whilst the controlled material is on your premises,under your control, and presuming you are authorised to have it, you are (more orless!) safe. Those familiar with the ‘deemed’ re-export rules under the InternationalTraffic in Arms Regulations (‘ITAR’) and Export Administration Regulations (‘EAR’)know that this is not the case.

Paul Whitfield-Jones and Jason Hungerford of Norton Rose Fulbright will explainhow U.S. deemed re-export rules extend licensing requirements into a company’s owninternal operations – with major ramifications for the manner in which the companymanages export control compliance – drawing lessons from recent major casesinvolving violations of deemed re-export rules.

Our Dexter House venue is located opposite the historic Tower ofLondon. Situated just 5 minutes walk from Tower Hill and Tower Gateway DLR stations, the venue sits in the exclusive gated “Royal Mint Court” business community – keep an eye out for a large stone arch which forms the entrance to Royal Mint Court. Once through the arch, follow the signs to Dexter House.

By Underground, Tower Hill Station Exit Tower Hill tube station and follow the sign to Tower Gateway DLR (also signed Tower Millennium Pier and Tower of London). Follow the pathway for 200 yards past the London Metropolitan University (on your left) and at the pedestrian crossing, cross over The Minories (Societe Generale building will be in front of you). Turn right at the Societe Generale building and cross over the next pedestrian crossing (Sceptre Court will be on your left).
