Statecraft Intensity
Exactly how exposed this country is to sanctions and export-control pressure — and how seriously.
United States
United States sits at 18 of 100 on sanctions and export-control pressure it faces — low — ranking 117 of 192 countries we track. The heaviest single driver is ofac designations at 12/100. No meaningful extraterritorial liability for third parties transacting with United States today.

How many people, companies and vessels tied to this country sit on the US Treasury's SDN list. Anyone on it is off-limits to US persons and to most dollar-clearing banks.
Presence on the Commerce Department's Entity, Denied Persons and Unverified lists. These bite on technology and components rather than money, so they hit different sectors than OFAC.
How much of the economy is covered, not just how many names. A narrow defence-only regime is a very different risk from one reaching energy, finance and shipping.
How closely the US, EU, UK and UN target the same names (Jaccard similarity). Coordinated pressure is far harder to route around than a unilateral programme.
Free shows the last four months. The rate of change, not the level, is the leading tell: an accelerating count usually precedes sectoral broadening.
Coordinated pressure is much harder to route around than a unilateral programme. A high overlap means re-domiciling a trade into Europe or the UK buys you very little.
