# FinCEN Section 311 Special Measures List

> May 12, 2026

Baselayer now screens against the FinCEN Section 311 Special Measures list, which identifies foreign financial institutions designated as primary money laundering concerns under the USA PATRIOT Act.

FinCEN 311 designations surface automatically in watchlist results alongside existing sanctions checks. No integration changes required - the new source is included automatically under the OFAC results.
