The monetary and financial dimensions of economic sanctions have become critical components of sanctions strategies.

Furthermore, sanctions may have significant impacts on financial obligations. This book, prepared under the auspices of the International Monetary Law Committee of the International Law Association (Mocomila), is the first to focus on the unexplored financial and monetary law aspects of economic sanctions and examine their impact on central banks and payment systems.
