The UN Security Council Consolidated List

The United Nations Security Council establishes sanctions regimes, and relevant sanctions committees maintain the associated listings.

The UN Security Council Consolidated List brings together individuals and entities subject to measures under relevant Security Council sanctions regimes.

Implementation of UN sanctions occurs through member states and their domestic legal frameworks, rather than through direct UN regulation of individual businesses.
