6. Financial restrictive measures - European Union's consolidated sanctions list



Terrorist lists have been set up by the world's leading political-economic powers and international organizations as well, which as financial restrictive measures aim to identify funds related to terrorism and financing of terrorism and freeze them in an administrative (not criminal) procedure.
Financial restrictive measures appeared in the practice of the United Nations during the 1990's. Besides fight against terrorism financial restrictive measures have been established among others in favour of standing up against anti-democratic regimes that not respect the rule of law or breach fundamental rights. These targeted sanctions aim to impede economic activities for those who are listed. European Union plays an important role in the implementation of financial restrictive measures from the Hungarian point of view. The European Union implements financial restrictive measures ordered by the UN Security Council by its common policy and the European Council's regulations, which are in force and are directly applicable in the EU member states without further implementation due to the legal nature of EC regulations.
