OFAC sanctions enforcement against Interactive Brokers: Important compliance lessons (also) for Swiss financial institutions

OFAC sanctions enforcement against Interactive Brokers: Important…

On 15 July 2025, the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") announced a settlement with Interactive Brokers LLC ("IB"), a U.S.-based global brokerage firm. The case, which resulted in a penalty of nearly USD 12 million, arose from compliance deficiencies related to sanctions screening, client location controls and oversight of introducing brokers. Although the enforcement action concerns U.S. regulations, it offers highly relevant lessons for Swiss financial institutions. In particular, the case illustrates how U.S. authorities evaluate the effectiveness of sanctions compliance frameworks in digital and cross-border contexts. OFAC's findings underscore the importance of integrating technical access controls (e.g., IP filtering), robust screening and escalation procedures, as well as careful oversight of third-party introducers.

Swiss sanctions against Russia – Further alignment with the EU – Implementation of the 16th Sanctions Package

Swiss sanctions against Russia – Further alignment with the EU –…

In a continued effort to align with European Union ("EU") sanctions, on 14 May 2025, the Swiss Federal Council implemented additional measures transposing the core components of the European Union's 16th sanctions package adopted on 24 February 2025. The new Swiss measures entered into force on 15 May 2025 and reinforce the existing framework through enhanced trade restrictions, territorial extensions and service bans. These include, inter alia, the expansion of Article 28e UKRO to non-government-controlled areas of Ukraine and reinforced prohibitions on Russian infrastructure and financial messaging services.
