What must a UK business do when it identifies a sanctions target?

It must freeze the funds or economic resources without delay, make no funds or resources available to or for the benefit of the designated person, and report the finding to the Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation. A licence from OFSI is needed before any payment or release. The prohibitions apply to all persons in the United Kingdom and to UK persons anywhere, and breach is a criminal offence that can also bring a civil monetary penalty on a strict liability basis.
