Consolidated List (XML) In order to make it easier to comply with OFAC's sanctions regulations, the office is now offering all of its non-SDN sanctions lists in a consolidated set of data files "the Consolidated Sanctions List". These consolidated files comply with all OFAC's existing data standards. In the future, if OFAC creates a new non-SDN style list, the office will add the new data associated with that list to these consolidated data files if appropriate.
