List Details
Description:
Some countries are under US economic embargo because they are threatening the
security, the economy or the safety of the United States. The financial restrictions on those
countries impose that no payments, transfers, withdrawals, or other dealings may take
place with regard to blocked country unless authorized by the US Treasury Department.
SIDE provides two lists of blocked countries: One with the countries for which a complete
embargo exists (“OFAC Completely Blocked Countries”), and one with the countries for
which a partial or a complete embargo exists (“OFAC Partially or Completely Blocked
Countries”). It is up to the customer’s Compliance Department to decide which list needs
to be loaded as “OFAC Blocked Countries” in the system. Furthermore, a procedure
described below enables the customer to create a custom list in order to retain only a
subset of the partially blocked countries to best suit the instructions of its Compliance
Department.

Additional Information:
The information presented on the web site of the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the US
Treasury Department describes the sanctions programs for a number of countries. SIDE
provides two lists of blocked countries: One with the countries for which a complete
embargo exists and one with the countries for which a partial or a complete embargo
exists. SIDE is not qualified to analyze all legal implications of conducting business with the
countries (other than those for which clearly a complete embargo exits) listed on the web
site of the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the US Treasury Department. The Compliance
Department of each financial institution should define what level of interaction with the
other countries listed on the above mentioned web site is acceptable to their institution
and select the relevant list provided by SIDE or even use a custom list of blocked countries,
as per the procedure described below.
How to create a custom blocked countries list:
- Create the list:
In the "List management" application, click the New Empty List button. Type the name of
the list, example: "MyBlockedCountries". A new version is automatically created as of
today.
- Fill in the list:
In the "List explorer" application, select the list in the Search panel. (You might need to
choose: List Set : <any>). Click the Search button. The result list should show no records.
Click the New button and type the country name. In the Type combobox, choose
"Country". Enter any other information as needed. If you want to enter some city names or
alternative spellings, you can click the Add aka button and enter the alternate name.
Click the Save button to validate the entry, and repeat as needed.
