Welcome to the Hughes Hubbard Anti-Corruption and Internal Investigations Practice Group’s Podcast, All Things Investigations. In this podcast, host Tom Fox and members of the Hughes Hubbard Anti-Corruption & Internal Investigations Practice Group will highlight some of the key legal issues involved in white-collar and other investigations, both domestically and internationally. In this episode, I speak with Tyler Grove, counsel at Hughes Hubbard, about the Biden administration’s multilateral approach to sanctions.
Tyler Grove has worked at Hughes Hubbard for over 10 years, starting as a paralegal and then working his way up to a full-time associate before taking the position of counsel. Tyler’s specialties include sanctions and export controls in addition to anti-money laundering and foreign investment issues. His practice has three main areas: compliance counseling, enforcement and investigations, and corporate diligence and filings.
Key areas we discuss on this podcast are:
- The differences between the Biden administration’s sanctions vs. those of the past.
- The US has imposed a soft embargo on any items subject to its jurisdiction and classified on the commerce control list.
- How soon we will be able to see the effectiveness of the Biden administration’s embargo.
- We will likely see an expansion of the sanctions imposed for human rights.
- It’s important that companies are aware of their suppliers, and how their products are being manufactured.
- Anti-boycott issues in China.
