US OFAC Enforcement Actions

List of formal legal proceedings where the U.S. Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control penalizes individuals, companies, or entities that violate American economic sanctions and embargo programs.

OFAC Enforcement Actions are formal legal proceedings where the U.S. Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control penalizes individuals, companies, or entities that violate American economic sanctions and embargo programs. These actions typically involve civil monetary penalties, settlement agreements, or warning letters for violations such as conducting business with sanctioned parties, failing to freeze designated assets, or having inadequate compliance programs. The enforcement actions serve as both punishment for violations and deterrence for others, with OFAC publicly disclosing significant cases to provide guidance on sanctions compliance.
