OFAC List/Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List

The list also names individuals, groups, and entities, such as terrorists or narcotics traffickers designated under programs that are not country-specific. These individuals are called "Specially Designated Nationals" or "SDNs." Their assets are blocked, and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from dealing with them. The SDN list is frequently updated; however, there is no predetermined timetable for updating. Names are added and removed as appropriate.

MIP

The Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) requires a financial institution to establish Member Identification Program (MIP) that meets minimum requirements. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. The institution's staff will ask for the member's name, address, and date of birth. The institution will ask to see a valid photo I.D., such as a driver's license. Additionally, before any new account is opened, the member's name must be checked against the OFAC list.
