Why this view exists
OFAC publishes the Cuba SDN list grouped only by entity type (individuals / entities / vessels / aircraft) and by sanctions program. Compliance, M&A, and journalist research workflows usually want a sector-pivoted view — "who are the currently-sanctioned FAR/MININT officials?" or "which GAESA-affiliated entities are blocked?" — which neither OFAC nor most trackers offer. We compute the sector for every designation from its OFAC remarks plus a curated overrides table; see the sector pillar page for the full methodology.
