International Equivalent of UCCs and Other Due Diligence Searches and Filings

This 60 minute webinar will be given twice on September 14th: Once at 10:30 am EST and again at 2:30 pm EST. It will provide practical knowledge and offer best practices to the legal professional in the following areas:

What you need to know about searching for and securing assets outside of the United States

Knowing what types of laws similar to the Uniform Commercial Code Article 9 exist in countries outside the United States and how to search for secured assets as well as the processes to secure assets in those countries is critical to protecting assets and interests in today's global economy. Although the UCC Article 9 exists only in the United States as a matter of law, many other jurisdictions outside the U.S. have laws similar to UCC Article 9. Where to look, private versus public, and common law versus civil law are all questions that warrant careful consideration when transacting business abroad. It is also important to understand international judgments and tax lien equivalents to ensure proper search techniques and that searches comply with local privacy laws.

Due Diligence and OFAC Compliance: Do you know who your client is?

Since 9/11/01 executive orders, laws, statutes and regulations have been imposed that impact how governments, agencies, financial institutions, businesses, law firms and individuals do business. The primary objective of these laws has been to stem money laundering and anti-terrorism activities in the United States. It is important to understand these regulating activities and how they impact law firm management, lawyers, paralegals and compliance managers.
