Hosted at the ±¬ÁϳԹÏÍø, this two-day event will present the key findings of the PRIVILEGED research project, which examines how professional privileges shape both administrative and criminal proceedings across EU Member States.Against this background, the conference will address critical questions: how should confidentiality be balanced with transparency? How do different branches of law &#8211; criminal, banking, financial, competition, and tax &#8211; approach the tension between enforcement powers, confidentiality, and procedural rights? Do professional privilege regimes operate consistently across these fields, or do they create fragmentation that affects the effectiveness of investigations? And ultimately, is harmonization at the EU level needed in this field &#8211; and what could it look like?<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-spacer is-spacer-size-sm\"><\/div>\n\n\n<h5 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"language\"\n    >\nLanguage<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a free event.
