Maxar Technologies Visual Investigations The $2.8 Billion Hole in U.S. Sanctions on Iran A Times investigation reveals how lax government oversight allowed shadowy oil tankers, covered by American insurance, to fund Iran’s regime.
The American Club is one of only 12 major insurers of its kind, and the only one based in the United States.
By then, the tankers had transported at least $2.8 billion in crude oil, based on the lowest reported prices of Iranian oil in 2023.
The Treasury office has publicly enforced sanctions on the American Club only once in the past 20 years.
Ultimately, the office said the American Club did “not appear to have been willful or reckless” and the case was settled.
