  • 401(k) Plan Sponsors Need To Turn The Lights Back On

    I live on Long Island, so the joke is by law, I must like Billy Joel. Honestly, I’ve been a fan since about 7 or 8 when my Aunt had the Glass Houses record. After a long time of not writing any music, Billy is back with “Turn the Light Back On.” It’s a song about regret and mistakes. The song has been in my head for weeks and the AI-created music video showing Billy when he was younger is an alltime classic and would be an MTV staple if MTV still showed music videos. Many 401(k) plan sponsors may have many mistakes and some regrets if they knew the mistakes they were making. They certainly could turn the “lights back on” for their 401(k) plan.

  • International Trade Enforcement Roundup – February 2024 Update

    February saw a continuing focus on Russia. First, the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), in conjunction with the State Department, sanctioned over 500 individuals and entities – the “largest number of sanctions imposed since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.” The Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) also added 93 entities to its Entity List. Second, the Department of Justice (DOJ) disrupted two separate sanctions evasion schemes with individuals entering guilty pleas. There were three notable actions involving Iran this month. BIS reached an administrative settlement with CargoSave, a freight shipper, which seems to have been granted “credit” for assisting in an investigation of a third party. Also, a UK citizen was sentenced to 18 months in prison for conspiring to export U.S.-origin goods to Iran, and a father-son duo was charged with facilitating the export of a variety of U.S.-origin equipment and technology to Iran.
