Department of the Treasury January 8, 2021 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) is publishing the names of one or more persons that have been placed on OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List based on OFAC's determination that one or more applicable legal criteria were satisfied. All property and interests in property subject to U.S. jurisdiction of these persons are blocked, and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from engaging in transactions with them.

On December 11, 2020, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) published in the Federal Register a final rule that revises its regulations relating to policies and procedures for corporate activities and transactions involving national banks and Federal savings associations to update and clarify the policies and procedures, eliminate unnecessary requirements consistent with safety and soundness, and make other technical and conforming changes. This correcting amendment supplements the Effective Date discussion in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section of the final rule as it appeared in the Federal Register. It also makes three technical changes to the regulatory text of the final rule that appeared in the Federal Register to correct typographical errors.
