What is the Control list? What is the difference between the Control list and OFACs SDN list?
The Control List was developed by the law enforcement community in response to the events of September 11. It was separate from the OFAC’s SDN list and was not disseminated by OFAC. On November 26th, 2002, the regulators announced the discontinuation of the Control List and unveiled a new process for handling information requests from the government (see CONTROL LIST TIMELINE section of the document), based on section 314(a) of the USA PATRIOT Act.
