The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control has added several entries to its list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons. |
Highlights:
- On February 7, 2006, President Bush issued a new Executive Order declaring a national emergency to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the foreign policy of the United States posed by the conflict in Côte d'Ivoire. As a result of this action, the Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) added three entries to its list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons.

- OFAC has also added additional entries to the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons list. The new entries are attached.
- OFAC has asked that we distribute the information to all FDIC-supervised institutions so records can be checked for accounts that are required to be blocked.
