This project is only a parser of public financial sanction lists. The target is to get a common and flexible format that can be extracted to different formats and imported in other tools.
Economic sanctions are domestic penalties applied unilaterally by one country (or multilaterally, by a group of countries) on another country (or group of countries). Economic sanctions may include various forms of trade barriers and restrictions on financial transactions. Economic sanctions are not necessarily imposed because of economic circumstances — they may also be imposed for a variety of political and social issues. Economic sanctions can be used for achieving domestic political gain. Wikipedia
Since the lists are used in 'sensible' projects, the objective is not to import as many lists as possible, but to ensure that they are extracted well and without any missing data that could be relevant.
