UK Finance Written Submission - March 2018

We are pleased to respond to this call for written evidence to the Public Bill Committee on the Sanctions and AntiMoney Laundering Bill ('the Bill?). At the outset, we wish to highlight that UK Finance and our members recognise that decisions on whether to impose sanctions as a foreign policy and national security tool is a matter for the Government. As such, our response is aimed at informing the viability of implementation to ensure the future application of UK sanctions measures can achieve their intended objectives whilst being practical to apply.
