US issues limited licence for Venezuelan gold exports
Gold trade permitted under strict routing restrictions
Change
The United States authorised a limited licence allowing Venezuelan gold exports to the US with restrictions on counterparties and payment routing.
Why it matters
The licence requires proceeds linked to sanctioned parties to flow through US Treasury-controlled accounts and prohibits transactions involving specified countries.
Implications
- — Banks must route payments through Treasury accounts — non-compliance risks sanctions
- — Traders must avoid restricted counterparties — violations trigger penalties
