European legal and economic security
Lawfare, economic warfare and sanctions
Law is increasingly used as an instrument of power. Extraterritorial sanctions, export controls, investment screening, strategic litigation and trade restrictions can reshape access to markets, technologies and financing.
METRICS examines how European organisations can identify legal and economic coercion, secure strategic assets, organise sanctions compliance and strengthen legal and regulatory sovereignty while accounting for operational, financial and geopolitical risks.
Core issues
