⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇷 — The U.S. Treasury Department warned foreign financial institutions continuing transactions with sanctioned Iranian financial institutions that they “could be targeted at any time without advance notification,” urging them to immediately terminate such activity and relationships. — Reuters

➡️ Institutions facilitating Iran’s access to the global financial system—including by servicing Iranian banks, subsidiaries or branches in third countries—risk sanctions for operating in or supporting sanctioned sectors of Iran’s economy, while Iran-related transactions that cause U.S. financial institutions or other U.S. persons to violate sanctions could trigger civil and criminal enforcement penalties.

Sanctions could include prohibiting a foreign financial institution from opening or maintaining U.S. correspondent or payable-through accounts, among the “strict conditions” that could be imposed for sanctioned activity.
