Prior to this action, United States financial institutions were authorized to process certain fund transfers for the direct or indirect benefit of Iranian banks, other persons in Iran or the Government of Iran, provided the payments were initiated offshore by a non-Iranian, non-United States financial institution and only passed through the United States financial system en route to another offshore, non-Iranian, non-United States financial institution.
Jusqu &apos; alors, les établissements financiers américains avaient l &apos; autorisation de traiter certains transferts de fonds au profit direct ou indirect des banques iraniennes, d &apos; autres personnes se trouvant en Iran ou du Gouvernement iranien, à condition qu &apos; il s &apos; agisse de règlements entre deux institutions financières extraterritoriales (ni iraniennes, ni américaines) qui ne font que transiter par le système financier américain.
