OFAC has reached a settlement of $4,144,651 with Berkshire Hathaway, Inc and its foreign subsidiary Iscar Turkey after the finding of potential civil liabilities for 144 apparent violations go the Iranian Transactions and Sanctions Regulations. Between December 2012 and January 2016, Iscar Turkey exported 144 shipments of cutting tools to two third-party Turkish distributors with knowledge that the tools will be shipped to Iran. Several of the identified end-users were affiliated with the Iranian government. Berkshire voluntarily self-disclosed the apparent violations and OFAC deemed the violations to constitute an egregious case.
