News From the OFAC International Trade Symposium

Last week the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) held its 3rd International Trade Symposium at the Convention Center in Washington DC. Adam Szubin, OFAC’s Director, opened the Symposium with descriptions of sanctions efforts regarding Iran, Syria and North Korea. He also highlighted two important new resources: a fuzzy logic Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List search tool and an online application system for OFAC licenses.
