Asset freezing: document measures and actions
France and Switzerland apply their own financial-sanctions measures. Identify the current measure, actual identity match and relevant assets before recording actions. A similar name is not a complete match assessment. Swiss sanctions are not automatically every EU measure. Keep freezing separate from civil attachment and suspicious-transaction reporting; this register contains no live sanctions list or automatic freezing decision.
