OFAC, which is run by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, produces trade and economic sanction lists that target certain people and businesses from identified nations as well as other risks to the national security, international relations, or economy of the United States.

The OFAC maintains a lot of lists. The Specially Designated Nationals List (SDN) focuses on particular individuals or groups that are unrelated to a targeted country and includes "individuals and enterprises owned or controlled by, acting for or on behalf of, targeted countries." Additionally, there is a Consolidated Sanctions List that compiles information from numerous other non-SDN databases.

• People, organizations and entities on sanction lists
• Legal acts for specific restrictive measures
• Restrictive measures guidelines

An updated list of everyone subject to financial sanctions imposed by the UK is made available by OFSI, a division of HM Treasury. Asset freeze targets and those subject to investment and financial restrictions fall under this category. It should be noted that in February 2022, the structure of their consolidated list changed.

• DNB | Sanctions and terrorism lists by the Dutch National Government

People and organisations involved in terrorism are included on the national terrorism sanctions list. Their wealth has been frozen. This implies that they are unable to use their bank accounts or credit cards or access their money. This makes it more challenging for these individuals to engage in or commit acts of terrorism (financially).
