In a keynote address at the Global Investigations Review Connect: New York conference on October 5, Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General John Carlin provided insights into future Department of Justice corporate enforcement. Of particular note, and which has been largely unnoticed, Carlin highlighted the Department’s heightened focus on sanctions and export control-related actions. In discussing corporate enforcement trends, the first topic Carlin highlighted was sanctions and export control enforcement, which he connected to a “surge” of resources in the new administration.
