Sept 16 (Reuters) – The U.S. Treasury said on Wednesday its Financial Crimes Enforcement Network had convened a meeting of global financial institutions to advance Operation Economic Outcast, its recent push to isolate Tehran and limit its ability to fund the war in the Middle East.
“The event armed financial institutions with the information they need to shut down revenue streams and procurement networks tied to the Iranian regime,” Treasury said in a statement.
