Mercédeh Azeredo da Silveira and Stephan den Hartog have authored a series of posts regarding the potential impact of economic sanctions on arbitral and financial institutions, published in the Kluwer Arbitration Blog.

The series addresses critical issues faced by such institutions as a result of restrictions on transfers of funds under primary and secondary sanctions programmes, including programmes against Iran and Russia, and offers guidance to avoid the obstruction of arbitration proceedings if sanctioned parties are involved.
