Description:
Sanctions, tariffs, supply-chain disruption and heightened geopolitical uncertainty are placing increasing pressure on commercial relationships and long-term contracts. When circumstances change, when does performance become impossible or unlawful, and when is it simply more difficult or costly?
Bringing together in-house counsel and private practice perspectives, this session will explore how businesses are managing contractual risk, responding to disruption and navigating disputes in an increasingly uncertain environment. The discussion will consider the practical and legal implications of force majeure, hardship, sanctions, regulatory change and supply-chain disruption, as well as recent developments in UAE law and judicial practice affecting the interpretation and enforcement of commercial contracts.
