The U.S. government enacted legislation to regulate financial transactions involving designated Iranian financial institutions and the Central Bank of Iran. The regulatory framework establishes compliance obligations for U.S. banking entities, requiring enhanced due diligence, transaction screening, and periodic reporting. Financial institutions must implement updated internal controls to prevent prohibited dealings, thereby mitigating exposure to Iranian financial sanctions and ensuring consistent federal oversight.
