Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC approached OFAC in early April 2006 about
an internal investigation it was conducting related to U.S. securities transactions executed on
behalf of an entity subject to U.S. sanctions, and made two additional supplemental disclosures
later in 2006. In early 2007, after the New York County District Attorney's Office began
looking into several suspicious wire transfers, Credit Suisse also informed OFAC ofa separate
internal investigation related to its activities as a U.S. dollar ("USD") correspondent for
payments involving Iran, Sudan, Burma, Cuba, North Korea, and persons whose property and
interests in property are blocked pursuant to OFAC regulations.
