19 removals, zero all-clears

19 names came off the sanctions lists in the week of 3–7 August 2026. 7 of them came off under the EU's Iran programme (EU-IRN).

A removal is not an all-clear. The designation history remains part of the risk picture: a formerly-listed counterparty still warrants the ownership and adverse-media checks that the listing once prompted, and the file should record why a match no longer applies rather than silently dropping it.

firm.cy marks delisted entries as formerly listed instead of deleting them, so a screening result shows the whole arc — listed, amended, removed — with dates.
