OFAC's extraterritorial reach is primarily aimed at enforcing U.S. sanctions in alignment with the country's foreign policy and national security objectives. Its sanctions often extend beyond U.S. borders to prevent entities, both domestic and foreign, from engaging in activities that may undermine these goals.

The question is badly formed. ACAMS study guide, page 306, states economic sanctions fall into three categories: targeted, sectoral, and comprehensive. The cfr link you put in the answer says common sanctions are "asset freezes, travel bans, and arms embargoes," and doesn't say anything about SWIFT.

This is not good. This is already second question on page 1 that has incorrect answer and I paid $22 for premium for 90 days.
