Background

CAUDAL (Organización Superior de Dirección Empresarial CAUDAL S.A.) was designated by the US State Department on 13 July 2026 under Executive Order 14404, in the 'sources of funding' cluster of that day's ten-entity wave, for its role in insurance, reinsurance and financial services.

Unlike GECOMEX and GEMAR, CAUDAL was not named in OFAC's same-day FAQ 1262, which granted those two entities a 30-day wind-down window to 12 August 2026. No equivalent wind-down guidance for CAUDAL was found in this research pass, meaning transactions with it carry sanctions exposure without the grace period given to the other trade and maritime entities.

Beyond its sector and the designation, the public record does not establish CAUDAL's founding date, ownership or leadership; that should not be assumed or filled in.
