OFAC targets Syrian officials and Central Bank of Syria

A Treasury Department press release reports that OFAC has sanctioned a high-ranking official in the Syrian government; her husband, a member of the Syrian People’s Assembly; and their business entities. Further, OFAC added the Central Bank of Syria to the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN List), underscoring its status as a blocked person, and additionally identified the property of other previous blocked persons. In total, OFAC added two individuals, nine business entities, and the Central Bank of Syria to the SDN List, pursuant to Syria sanctions authorities.

The press release also announced that the State Department has designated six Syrian persons in accordance with Executive Order 13894, “Blocking Property and Suspending Entry of Certain Persons Contributing to the Situation in Syria.”

For identification information on the individuals and entities that were designated, and for links to three new Syria-related FAQs, see the BankersOnline OFAC Update.
