Homg Kong Monetary Authority Issues Multiple Updates

They're all published on the EGazette site – these include updates to the UN Afghanistan, Liberia, North Korea and terror sanctions, as well as the US terror sanctions under Executive Order 13224. The truly informative part is the guidance at the bottom of the notice:

AIs are reminded that in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 6 of the Guideline on
Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing, they should maintain a
database of individuals and entities designated under the United Nations (Anti-Terrorism
Measures) Ordinance, United Nations Sanctions Ordinance and US Executive Order
13224 for client and transaction screening purposes.

The HKMA expects all new designations to be screened against an AI’s client list as soon
as practicable after the issuing of a circular by the HKMA.

Any transactions or relations, past or present, with any designated individual or entity
should be reported to the Joint Financial Intelligence Unit and the HKMA.
