The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) recently added 57
individuals and 21 businesses to its list of Specially Designated Narcotics Traffickers (SDNTs).
The updated listing is attached. OFAC also announced that one SDNT and three Specially
Designated Nationals of Iraq have been removed from OFAC's master list of Specially
Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons. Information on other SDNTs has also been updated.
In FIL-36-95, dated May 19, 1995, the FDIC provided information about OFAC and a series of
laws administered by OFAC that impose economic sanctions against targeted hostile foreign
countries to further U.S. foreign policy and national security objectives. Also provided in FIL-
36-95 were details about the availability of computer-based, up-to-date OFAC data.
Please distribute the attached list to the appropriate persons in your institution. For questions
about this list or the procedures to block accounts, please call OFAC's Compliance Programs
Division on 800-540-6322.
