Will Myanmar’s historic elections outcome bring durable change to the country? Who are the forces at play, and what is at stake in the negotiations around the transition to NLD rule? How will the influence of the Myanmar military change (and the companies that have chosen to affiliate with them) after the election – and what impact will this have on the economy, on US sanctions, and on business?
Part Two in a three-part series, the webinar will begin with Kroll Associate Managing Director, Cem Ozturk, and Senior Associate, Shaun Sandu’s, discussion on changes in the political playing field, sources of instability, and other factors influencing the elections. Ozturk and Sandu have deep experience in the country dating back to the early 2000s, and are involved with many of Kroll’s most complex cases in Southeast Asia.
In the second half of the discussion, Kroll will be joined by Inle Advisory Group’s Peter Kucik, a recognized expert on US sanctions and regulations. Kucik spent six years as a policy adviser at the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Asset Control, helping to craft regulations around today’s Myanmar sanctions regime. Kroll and Inle will discuss recent changes to the US sanctions regime, the potential for further changes, and what it means for business.
