Global Business in Iran: Interactive

A new AEI web tool, "Global Business in Iran: Interactive," documents major financial transactions with the Islamic Republic between 2000 and 2007. The findings, based on open-source reporting, are organized by country, economic sector, company, and financial institution. The Institute's researchers have documented more than 300 transactions amounting to more than $150 billion. The interactive tool will be updated regularly as new information comes in.
