Consolidated Sanctions

This collection combines all designated entities from the various sanctions lists included in OpenSanctions. It represents the broadest set of sanctioned people, companies and other assets that is designated globally.

Virtually all sanctions lists are based on the UN Security Council List, and add further listings based on national policies.

The sanctions included here generally impose one or more restrictions like

• freezing of assets
• banning financial transactions, except sometimes for personal living expenses
• travel bans

They may be imposed as a consequence of activities such as funding or association with organisations involved in terrorism or human rights abuses, or for other geopolitical reasons.

This excludes restrictions sometimes termed as sanctions such as those imposed by financial regulators for financial misconduct, or debarments restricting procurement. Those are included in the Crime collection instead.
