All Authorized Institutions must screen all new designations against their client lists as soon as practicable after the HKMA issues a circular, and report any past or present transactions or relations with designated individuals or entities to the Joint Financial Intelligence Unit and the HKMA. AIs should maintain a database of individuals and entities designated under the United Nations (Anti-Terrorism Measures) Ordinance, United Nations Sanctions Ordinance and US Executive Order 13224 for client and transaction screening. On 23 September 2014, the Security Council's Al-Qaida Sanctions Committee approved adding 16 names subject to targeted financial sanctions, travel ban and arms embargo under resolution 2161 (2014); those providing financial or material support, including arms or recruits, are eligible for listing.
