In the latest edition of HSF's banking litigation podcast, we discuss the impact of sanctions against Russia on banks and financial institutions. We explore the current sanctions regime, Russian counter-sanctions measures, as well as sanctions related litigation in the English courts.
The episode is hosted by John Corrie, who is joined by Ceri Morgan and special guests Charlotte Benton, Alexander Gridasov, and Ali Grodzki.
