Iran's financial custodians oversee oil revenue
The Iranian authorities continue to investigate companies known as "financial trustees," which are used as intermediaries in holding and settling payments related to foreign trade, especially when direct bank transfers are hindered by sanctions and financial restrictions. These companies or individuals handle the collection of revenues from oil exports and their settlement indirectly, often by depositing funds into intermediary accounts that are later used to pay for imports or settle obligations in foreign currency, without the funds returning directly to Iran. Currently, investigations are opening criminal cases against several of these trustees, with assets being seized and suspects pursued, as part of efforts to oversee unofficial money flows and ensure the collection of national revenues. These procedures emphasize the responsibility of the Ministry of Oil and the Central Bank in organizing and監控 financial collection and settlement operations, although official data do not reveal specific lists or account details of these financial trustees.
