Understand the impact of the Ukraine conflict from a cross-sector perspective with the Global Data Executive Briefing: Ukraine Conflict


The US has redesignated Russian state-owned enterprise (SOE) United Shipbuilding Corporation (USC) in the wake of Russia’s military offensive against Ukraine.

These sanctions will also apply to 28 subsidiaries and eight board members of the Russian joint-stock company.

With this move, the US Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) aims to suspend additional sources of revenue for the Government of the Russian Federation (GoR).

US Treasury under-secretary for terrorism and financial intelligence Brian Nelson said: “These sanctions will continue to apply pressure to key entities that enable and fund Russia’s unprovoked war against Ukraine.

“These actions, taken with the Department of State and in coordination with our allies and partners, reflect our continued effort to restrict the Kremlin’s access to assets, resources and sectors of the economy that are essential to supplying and financing Putin’s brutality.”
